We're here!

Well, we are finally in Scotland. The flight was not that long, but with the time change and constant in flight movies, we only slept about 2 hours on the plane ride over. Then hit customs, more security and got on the very short plane ride from Dublin to Glasgow. Our hotel is great and by a large park and the beautiful campus of University of Glasgow. Yesterday we went to the University of Strathclye where Mike will be taking classes and got that all worked out. He will only have to take 3 classes, 2 year long classes and one semester class, but there will be a huge paper to write on top of that. We meet a very helpful profesor that laid out the program for us and what to expect as well as helped us get Mike all registered at the university. We even got a cell phone yesterday so my mom can now rest easy.
As of this morning I am now equiped with a library card, and hopefully by this afternoon we will have our apartment. I'll let everyone know more and add pictures later this week!

Good Morning,
At least it is morning over here. It is pretty chilly here this morning and grandpa is complaining about not being able to leave for Florida yet. It looks like rain outside and is about 48 degrees. Much too cold to suit him. I am so glad that you have your flat and that you are getting settled in. We think of you both every day. We love you lots. Grandma
