    My time in Glasgow

    As you know now, I visited Glasgow and was lucky enough to be lead around by Arlen, who gives a wonderful tour. Here are the highlights:

    Mmmm, haggis.


    Arlen and I showing our support for the Scottish rugby team!


    Pub? Check. Beer? Check. Kilt? Check. Scotland? Hell yeah!


    I give my approval of Insta-Kilts. They are EVERYWHERE!


    My friends, Ted and Doug, even try on kilts!


    I'm called Beloitpiper for a reason!

    Glad you had such a good time, Greg.
    Hopefully I'll see you again in November.
    And you're right, you and I are awesome.
