Sorry, you were out
A week has passed and it is time for me to update. On Wednesday Jenni and me went for the second sightseeing in Glasgow. This took about 4 hours. About 500 pictures were taken again along this day. So the story will add up to about 500000 words (one picture 1000 words). We went to the new part of Glasgow and from there to the Botanic Garden. It was lovely. Later we ate "pripelsås" with exellent bread from Somerfield for only 73p and a dessert from lovely Iceland. The night was then here.
On Thursday we had a calmer morning. I went to a class at 13 and returned 15. We ate a bit and and went to the museum of transport. A museum that would certainly interest Isak and Titus, my brothers. At 5 it closed so we had only an hour there. From there we continued to the South Side between the Science Center and the BBC. It was rough and I was scared. First to Bellahouston Park. There people were snowboarding and skiing on synthetic snow. The slopes were short. From there we continued to the next park, Pollock Park with the Pollock House. It is a museum. Now it was dark and the museum closed. Only the moon was up. We started of the third park even further away. We stopped at Morrisons and bought juice. We drank and it was refreshing but a bit strong. On the bottle it said concentrate, add 4 parts water to one. Oh! We continued to the park but were unable to find it, Queens Park. When we decided to turn around we realized we were a bit lost. We asked a man for help.
- Where is the river Clyde.
He explained and we found our way. It took though time. We were home around 9 and were exhausted. Quite a march.
On Friday Edinburgh was on the menu. We jumped on a train after ticket shopping. The train was ok, a bit expensive. Only 50 minutes and we were in there. It was much different. We started from the turist office to the Castle. From the Castle we walked down the Royal Mile to The parliament. I herad yesterday it was expensive to build and it is already falling apart. I´m not sure if I liked it. Then we walked up to the hill in Holyrood Park. That was the best part of Edinburgh. Up on the hill we dined. Apples, chocolate(?), juice, bread with ham and cheese and liqorice(?). Back down and we walked on the other side of the valley and came to the other hill. From there we walked down to the city and Jenni bought clothes and shoes. Then we decided to go back to Glasgow. We were not allowed to get on the train because our tickets were "super saver". We could travel the earliest at 18:30. We waited for 20 minuted and went back. At home Samuel was preparing the Toga Party. We ate hamburgers and chips, homemade. Then we helped a bit with the arrangements. We put on our togas. Mine was made of a towel and a scarf and Jennis was a bedsheet from the salvation army for 1 pound bough by samuel. People arrived and the flat was full. It was fun. Then the party ended and I avoided all the cleaning. There had been an argument about the cleaning but at that time I was sleeping so I didnt hear anything.
On Saturday we had a more humane day. I ran to the bank to sign a paper again for opening the account. Jenni went shopping and we met after that. Back home we had a fast lunch. Then we went to the Kelvingrove art gallery. There were some nice works. I realized I lived very close to some really nice pieces. I tought I will return. We returned. Later we put on some fancier clothes. We ate out at "The wee curry shop" at Buccleuch street. When we had ordered our drinks I asked if we could pay with visa. They said only cash. I had to run out and search for a ATM. I found one. It didnt accept my card. I found another one, got the money and returned 15 mins later. The food was good but the service was crap. They counted the bill wrong. We took the tip back we first gave them. To make things clear. Then we went to The Goat. There I met a boy that used to play football at the Kelvingrove park. He had broken his arm in a match. I drank a guiness and Jenni a glass of wine. Then we went home.
On Sunday we bought Jennis bus ticket. First we had some trouble finding a ticket. We printed it at the library. Bought a scissor for nails and DVDs for all the photos. Jenni packed her bags, burned the pictures. Then we ate Endives with Jambon. I messed up the Bechamell(?) sauce. In fact I had never done it before. It was delicious. Then we walked to the bus station. It was sad when Jenni left. I walked home, drank some tea and read about equality.
It was very much fun when Jenni was here, indeed.
Yesterday was monday. I had lectures and I had a cold. The evening and night I lied(?) in my bad skyping with family and writing mails.
Now it is today, now. I will get the pictures soon.

Märkte att jag hade glömt din blog. Du hade hunnit skriva en hel del sedan dess, men berättar nu bara att jag återfunnit den. Hurra. Glöm ej att du är en förälskad poet.
