A day of adventures...

This morning we went to Rosslyn Chapel. It is the church of Scotland and it's where one of the last scenes of the DaVinci Code took place. It was really pretty..the pillars and artwork inside was very detailed and well i dont really know what else to say about it and we were not allowed to take any pictures inside so that is that..they are in the process of restoring it now. Then..i went to this place called Greggs for lunch which has really good pastries and i ate two with sausage in the middle..better believe it... since i am such a picky meat eater...but the second i looked at the inside of it, i threw the second half of it away! Josh would've loved to  finish that for me, i know! So then we got back and changed into more comfy clothes and Ashley and I went with 4 other girls to explore the 300 acres of land that are owned by the Dalkeith "House" we are in and there was all sorts of trails..and we got lost, go figure! And guess where we ended up..inside of a fenced area of bulls..that was scary! And hit a dead end that said STOP: do not enter..so we had to back track all the way back til we found the river again and hop a few fences..we made it back safely though. It was an adventure! Tomorrow we start in the schools and we get our school/classroom assignments tonight!

here is the outside of the church where the DaVinci Code was filmed..since they wouldn't let us take any pictures of the inside!

A picture from our nature walk

the sign that we were not lost anymore and were back on a trail after walking around forever

here is a classroom that is in the building where we are living for the week...and this is where the ghosts live i guess...or one of them..i can't believe i even took a picture of this. The girl that was standing next to me when i took it said she wants to sit in there and talk to them..i dont know what is wrong with her!
