There's a reputation that Scotland has that it rains all the time in winter. I'd like to set the record straight… sometimes it's only drizzling.

Today was a bust, spent the morning resting in preparation for the big bus trip. I'm still trying to throw this damn cough. To that end I went to a local pharmacy. The Scots seem to have a different definition of pharmacy than I'm used to. It had everything from stereos to children's clothing. I finally found the corner where they sold medication - top floor, back corner. I guess it's like milk in the supermarket, always at the back.

Speaking of Scots, they seem to have a few stores here targeted (unsurprisingly and presumably) at tourists. Some that I've seen so far:

The Scotsman

The Scots Store

The Scottish Store

The Scotsman Store

Scotsmans Store

Scottish Store

The True Scotsman

There seems to be a theme going on. 😄
