Day in St. Andrews

Hi everyone,
Just a short update before I head off to the Up Helly Aa festival.  Today I spent the day in St. Andrew's, the home of golf, with around 300 other international students.  We flooded the picturesque little town.   On arrival we discovered a small little cafe that actually served bagels! Edinburgh is in a bagel drought, impossible to find them anywhere.  So needless to say, it was an amazing moment.
A couple of the other students and I wandered off and we hit up the ruins of the cathedral, castle and then we headed to the beach! Sarah and I even dipped our feet into the ocean.  Shenanigans ensued and we lost our balance and almost fell in.
Finally, I met up with a high school friend of mine, Maayan, who is on exchange at the University of  St. Andrew's. 
Anyways, nothing too exciting just thought I would post a couple pictures from the day!
8:30 tomorrow morning I am on my to Aberdeen to catch the overnight ferry to Lerwick, Shetland.
