It's amazing how quickly vacations go by. Jenn and I planned our Honeymoon back in January and for all of the hours that we put into planning it, it sure goes by quick. Although a very quick trip it was also an amazing Honeymoon, one that far exceeded both Jenn and my expectations. We woke up on our last morning in London with heavy hearts and heavy eye lids as the trip once again caught up to us. Our original plan on this final day in Europe was to head to the park where we both got engaged but given the small amount of time to make our flight and the fact that we wanted to rest we decided that we were better off saving that for another trip.

What a journey Scotland turned out to be. I know going into our Honeymoon Jenn and I really didn't have much in terms of expectations but more just a sincere excitement to go somewhere new. To maximize our time in London we took the first flight out of Edinburgh to Heathrow in London. We ended up leaving The Gleneagles at 5am where we walked downstairs where our driver was waiting for us. We got to the airport in less then an hour and made our way through security relatively quickly as well. We took an extremely small 30 passenger plane that actually got us in a half hour early at around 10am.

After the most relaxing day of the trip so far we decided to keep the theme alive with our last full day at the Gleneagles in Scotland. We woke up and actually made breakfast this morning something that has been a challenge the entire trip. We had another really nice Scottish breakfast and were off and ready to enjoy the rest of the day.

After two straight days of pure bliss traveling through Scotland it all caught up with Jenn and I. When I woke up at 9:30am I asked Jenn if she wanted to make it before breakfast ended at 10am, she gave me the look that spoke a thousand and words and were back to sleep. I am not one that usually likes to sleep in but the next time I woke up and saw the time on the Bose Clock Radio next to the bed it was almost 3:00pm. Both of our bodies felt just pure exhaustion from the wedding, the flight over, the two days of traveling through Scotland that we really needed to catch up on our rest.

After such an amazing day in St. Andrews, both Jenn and I got the fever to drive around Scotland. So we woke up with an extra sense of excitement for the upcoming day. We had decided after arriving back at the hotel the night before that we would drive to Edinburgh. We woke up and went down and had a nice breakfast at the hotel. From there we were off to Edinburgh. With our recent triumph of getting to and from St. Andrews with little to no problems we decided that we knew how to drive in Scotland well enough and didn't bother to get directions from the concierge on how to get to Edinburgh.

One of the toughest things about traveling anywhere overseas is getting used to the different time zone. Jenn and I got very little rest on our first night in Scotland, however when we did get up at around 8:30am we woke up with a fair amount of energy. One of the things that is so different about our Honeymoon in comparison to past Europe trips is that we had little to nothing planned out for this trip except where we were staying. So when we headed down to Breakfast we had to start coming up with some semblance of what we wanted to do on this trip.
