We woke up to snow in the mountains around Aviemore.

On Saturday, May 21st we left our villa in Aviemore, Scotland and drove to the Glasgow, Scotland Airport. Linda and Jerry dropped us off at our hotel which was across the street from the airport. Pat and I took a bus to the center of Glasgow and caught a train to Hamilton, Scotland. My Mom is from the Hamilton family. I wanted to visit the area where my Hamilton family lived.
