Day 4 consisted of "Hockey" as the Brits and Scots call it, as opposed to "Field Hockey". I was fortunate enough to get tickets to see the men's England vs Canada and New Zealand vs Malaysia games, back to back!
Mary, absolutely killing it in the new fashion - rubbish bin raincoat!
Chris and Bruce take on Nick Matthew and Adrian Grant in knockout stages after making it out of the group stages - awesome match!
*****************************************
After the boys played their last match we headed up to Aberdeen, about three hours north by train. We went to visit Chris's Uncle who owns a farm with his wife Sue, daughters Zoe and Abby and son Oliver. Right off the train we headed to the Glenfiddich Whiskey tour, not a shabby way to spend the day!
Toby and Sue own over 35 acres, home to 4 horses, MANY chickens, 3 dogs and 2 cats
Homemade Breaky Sandwich with fresh farm eggs, absolutely delicious!
A little flower from one cute little man
Getting Bilbo ready!
First time riding a horse for this guy!
Zoe! Causing trouble by abandoning her horse mid-ring
It has been QUITE some time since I have ridden a horse but Bilbo was a champ.
On our second to last night in Glasgow we happened upon the Jamaica house to celebrate the Men's and Women's 4X100 M relay victories.
Winston? Is that you?
Each country was welcomed with their very own Scotty to walk them out!
Opening Ceremony - from an athletes view.
