kareinaOn my way home today I had a very minor
adventure, and now I'm back in Milan. I am pleased to report that it isn't anywhere near as hot here as when I left. When I left the temps were in the high 30's C during the day, cooling down to 30 C by midnight. Today's flight landed around sunset, and when the bus got me to the city we passed a sign saying that it was only 25 C. As a result my walk home from the station was reasonably comfortable. Which is a good thing, since I started my morning with another climb up the cute little volcanic peak, "Arthur's Seat" (just under 1.5 hour loop), which felt good at the time, but following it with a day of travel (read sit and wait) my legs were starting to stiffen up and hurt by the time my flight landed. However, after the 30 minute walk home from the station my legs didn't hurt anymore.
I really enjoyed my week in Scotland, but didn't accomplish as much work as I would have liked. I have made good progress on one major job application and set it off for comment. Now that my sister has seen it I've a huge list of revisions I need to accomplish (some of which I did while waiting at the airport). I have one week at home, and then I fly to Ireland to visit a friend.
