{part 8}

Don't Panic by Coldplay on Grooveshark
{parts 123456, & 7}
 day six found us in a hurry. and we were happy to see it.

there is just something amazing about jumping into a day as though it were the great expanse beneath a cliff, a wide extent of anything {to borrow the dictionary's definition}, and just falling right up until you land in bed to sleep for the night. that morning, we jumped from the castleview b&b onto a train headed for a place called kyle of lochalsh. the train left at 8:30 am and took four hours to wind through the highlands of scotland. i put on my headphones and stared. it was a completely perfect free-fall.

You already know what I'm going to say. =] hahaha this is so beautiful! I would love to just ride a train through a country and be perfectly content with watching the country side and the pretty things pass by and not have somewhere to be in a hurry or an agenda to adhere to. And if I ever go here I'm chosing where i go based on the name of the town. Kyle of lochalsh? What does that even mean?

That first photo MELTED me.

Liz said...

1. great photos
2. you did a flower print thing-a-ma-bob that you posted on instagram (obviously, i'm not an artist...) would you ever consider selling any of your work???
3. if you like, check out the post, "check and carry" (two posts ago, i think)... i posted a link to a website that seems like it might be right up your alley. maybe. maybe not.

happy weekend, soon!

These photos are absolutely amazing--my favourite has to be the first one!

I wish I was more spontaneous and would just jump on a train--it's funny how life can stand in your way.

thanks rebecca! the rain spots are actually on the train windows though. :) we watched it all from inside the dry, warm train cars. {it's definitely the way to go!}
