Herrings in Aberdeen

It is a far, far better thing we will try than we could ever hope to accomplish. Keeping up this blog, that is. Nevertheless, we will attempt to keep those who care informed of our Scottish existence.

Virtual Tour

Some of you have wondered what our place looks like, so we’ve decided to take you on a virtual tour! ☺ Come along. Austen would like to welcome you in!


Directly across from the front door, is our bedroom.


If you go in the front door and look left, you’ll see the length of our hall. (Austen is feeling a little shy at the moment.)


From this vantage, our bedroom door is on your right but it doesn’t appear in the picture. The next door on the right is our spare room.


The last door on the right is the kiddos’ room.


And across from that is the living room.



Ho! What kind of drama is unfolding here!?


A battle of epic proportion has broken out in our living room!


It appears that Spiderman is doing battle against his arch-nemesis, Mermaidgirl.


Oh No! Spidey is down!


But wait, he's back up. Maybe, just maybe, our hero can protect us from the evil machinations of that slippery-sissy-of-the-sea!


Then again....umm, best to get back to the tour...

Off of our living room, is the kitchen. (The houses here are built in a very compartmentalized fashion for the sake of efficient heating.) Don’t be fooled; we don’t have a dishwasher. It’s a washing machine/dryer. But the dryer is sadly inefficient. That’s why you’ll see our clothes hanging to dry in the spare room!


Across the hall from the spare room is the bathroom. It looks like any other bathroom, right? Ah, but what other bathroom have you been in that you requires you to turn on a master switch in the hall in order for the shower to work? (Ask Steve how long it took him to figure that out! I’m glad he got here before me!) Pretty tricky!


That concludes our tour. We’re really pleased with our little place. Come and see it in person! We would love to have guests! After all, we have to justify the spare room!

Lara,
Your place looks great! Looks like you have more room than you did at GCTS. I got such a kick out of the intense battle scene. Glad you guys are doing well!

Did Spider Man ever come back for revenge?

Hey Steve & Lara,

We have often had a lot of fun looking at your page. We are very excited for the many experiences you have been enjoying during Steve's continuing study. We think of you all often, and remember the 'good ol' days when we could just hassle you through the wall if we wanted. Thanks for sharing.

Our love,
Nate & Danyel
