Puffins and Goodbyes

The sun was shinning in North Berwick, Scotland for our last day together.  From Edinburgh we drove to the Scottish Seabird Center for a run on the beach and a trawl through the lovely little seaside village.  




When it's time to say goodbye to the boys we feel like we've left a piece of 
ourselves somewhere or other.  For days after we wander about wondering 
where the car keys are, where our phones are, where our wallets are and 
eat nothing but fish and chips.  It's maddening being with them.  
There's boy smells and boy sounds.  There's wrestling and shouting.  
A banana is a lethal weapon.  It's constant packing and unpacking.  
It's up a mountain and back down again.  It's lost swimsuits and goggles.  
It's action movies and fart jokes.  And yet.  It's what makes us Clan Flett.  
Until next time then...  we can't wait!
