Today was one of our fabulous travel days. A day where we spend most of the time on the coach, with a few stops along the way.
Lunch was at a hotel in Gretna Green. It was explained to us that Gretna Green (just across the border into Scotland) was the only place in the UK that people aged 16 could get married. Couples that wanted to get married, but weren't old enough in other towns, would run away to Gretna Green. After lunch, we had a pretend ceremony with 2 students from our delegation. The group found the idea pretty funny.
Our destination for the evening was Pitlochry, Scotland. We stayed at a youth hostel for 2 nights. Lets just say that bunk beds and 8 girls in a room are not conducive to much sleep :). They had fun though, which is all that matters.
