All the way from Seattle, Washington to Glasgow, Scotland on the first leg of our journey!
We got to Sea-Tac and breezed through security with plenty of time to spare for our Aer Lingus flight to Edinburgh with a stop in Dublin, Ireland. Our flight left Seattle at 6:45 PM on Thursday the 12th of September.
Laura got a shot of me enjoying an online puzzle that was offered in the game app on the plane.
We made it to Dublin (because of the time zone difference of 8 hours) at 11:30 AM on Friday the 13th. Our connection in Dublin onto a much smaller plane was touch and go for a while as there were some technical issues but we finally boarded and made it to Edinburgh airport at 3:30 PM on Friday.
Our luggage arrived quickly and we made it to a queue for an airport bus to take us to Glasgow.
That trip is normally 1 hour long but there was a lot of Friday afternoon traffic and we didn’t make it to Glasgow until after 6PM.
It was a short walk from the bus station to our hotel and it felt good to settle in our rooms and then make it out for a nice sit down meal. After trying a couple of Pubs that were packed to the gills we settled in at All-Bar-One where we enjoyed our time.
So thankful for all the travelling mercies we enjoyed on this day.
It’s our first time in Glasgow, an old city with amazing architecture to enjoy. So thankful for Laura’s eye for the details in taking photos and sharing them with me.
Hoping to share more postcards along the way. We have been up for well over 24 hours and hope to sleep well, Goodnight!
