Weekend up-date

Another weekend filled with stuff to do and places to see!

Friday:
Our longest day at Uni with 4 whole lectures/tutorials...! Tutorial in Managing Service Ops. was pretty interesting once more - the lecturer really has the gift for teaching. Discussed how important it is to know what customers want and deliver it - and Annina had to be one of the chair(wo)men... blaaah! But it went pretty good :) Then after Barry's boring marketing lectures it was time for food and then Friends maraton in our apartment - skööönt :)

Saturday:
After a pretty early wake-up, jumped on the Megabus to Aberdeen for a days adventure! Seemed to be a really great city, and as it's Scotland's third biggest city, it was surprisingly bigger than Dundee ;) lots of shopping malls and stores, and old buildings such as Castlegate, which dates back to the 13th century. Marischal [marshall] College was pretty amazing as a building - it's supposed to be the World's second largest granite building, which pretty much says it all :)
Surprise surprise even found a couple of Starbuck's over there, so didn't walk around thirsty ;) The Union Terrace Gardens was though a bit of a disappointment...had expected more like Princess Street Gardens in Edinburgh, but it didn't even come close!

Sunday:
Slept in, and then went with Flora (NED) and Nathan (FRA) to Dundee Law, which is the highest point in Dundee. Such great views over the city from there, totally loved it! Absolutely a must-see when in Dundee ;) It was a prefect day weatherwise, the sun was shining and it was real warm, almost like in spring time...(probably one of the best autumn days so far) And no problem if we got hungry on the way up (the roads up the hillside are quite steep, workout for a day ;)), along the streets at the top we found lots of wild blackberries...! Yumm :P
Back down in the city centre afterwards we tried the typical Dundonian way and sat down in the "park" outside St. Mary's Cathedral, but figured we're not supposed to become that Dundonian and left pretty quickly...:) ...mostly because the sun had pretty much set and it was becoming chilly!

Monday will probably be a chill-day, but on Tuesday it's time for adventure nr. ? - Perth! Unfortunately not Perth in Aussieland, but the city of Perth about 30 mins from Dundee to the West :) Once the capital of Scotland, it's supposed to be a neat town with lots of interesting shops, cafés and parks...Can't wait! :)
