Little Lussie

 

A few days ago, I was wandering through Scotland like a local.

Today, I'm sitting on a porch swing in the southern heat of Florida. I'd take a picture to show you... but my camera lens fogs over every time I try to take a picture.

While these beautiful little Floridian streets of perfectly manicured lawns lining pastel colored homes filled with perfectly tanned people living inside have a quite stunning effect...

I'm not sure how they compare to the little village of Luss that I stumbled upon over the weekend while working our way up through Scotland.

(Though Scotland doesn't have my mom's biscuits & gravy... and that is hard to beat.)

I love the quaint "kirk" in the town.

("Kirk"= church in Scotland)

I also really love Cadbury 99's. (Ridiculous soft serve on a cone with a Cadbury flake shoved in it. Yum.) Seeing them just makes it feel like summer has actually arrived here in Britain...

even if "summer" often means wearing a sweater, jeans & a giant scarf while the grey skies above you spit out rain.
