Stirling, Not Shaken

Today, the International Student Center took a bunch of us international kids to the city of Stirling, but apparently, the Center didn't bring back all the kids that it brought there. After much counting and recounting, it was concluded that we were missing one kid. A lengthy attendance was taken, at the end of which we discovered that we were actually short three people. Another attendance was taken to ascertain the identity of the three. And then we just drove off. Yeah, I was a little concerned too since the bus ride was a good ninety minutes. I hope they got back ok...



Stirling, for the less learned, is slightly north west of Eddie Bert and is the site where the great Sir William Wallace (Mel Gibson) fought his battles and not where he was betrayed by his fellow Scots, hanged, beheaded, and disemboweled. There's also a castle here where royalty used to hang out, including James VI, the last king of Scotland. ('Cause then he became James II, of Great Britain, and England and Scotland became one. The number system is very confusing.) But why did I just tell you all that boring stuff when I've got pictures to show you? (The ones above are just general ones from the castle. The ones below are disturbing heads around the castle. Simulation people really stress me out. And there's one of a unicorn because the royalty really dug them. The rest get their own titles and subtitles.)
