On Monday morning Scott came to pick me up and we drove down to Glasgow for a couple of days. We got there before check in so decided to waste sometime in Ikea. We both just bought little bits and pieces before heading to our hotel to relax. We stayed in the Hilton Double Tree in the city center which was just perfect. Later that day we headed out to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner - I eat so much I could barely walk back again.
Tuesday was our day for wandering so after a long lie we went down to the shops to get my boyfriends mum an easter egg from hotel chocolate. After a cheeky McDonalds lunch we walked to the Botanic Gardens then onto Kelvingrove park before walking back to the hotel. That was already a lot of steps but we had decided on Obsession of India for dinner so walked there in the evening. It was really tasty but on a Tuesday night the restaurant was dissected.
On our final morning we checked out and went to Cafe Nero for breakfast. Scott suggested the Riverside Museum so we got in the car and drove there. I've already been before but it was interesting to go again and take even more in. After we'd done that it was time to drive home again - such a short but sweet break.
The end of the week was reserved for studying for exams that are creeping up on me. I got quite a lot done plus I was able to take outfit pictures, do some scrapbooking, take my dogs for walks and spend time with my family before going back to Aberdeen.
Scott and I had been invited to a party on Saturday night so after the Aberdeen Vs Hibs we headed back up. We didn't do much but eat pizza and watch TV until it was time to get ready. It is always nice to spend time with friends you've not been in along time and have a few drinks soo. We played Cards Against Humanity and then I had to drink the dirty pint after a game of Ring of Fire. When we arrived home in the early hours we were shattered (probably because we decided to walk back...).
I woke up with a sore head on Sunday but nothing too serious. We had the longest lie in, sausages for breakfast and didn't go out until about 4pm and that was only for pudding. My new Hello Fresh box arrived so we had five meals to choose from. I'm thinking about doing another review for that - would you like to see it? We had lots of episodes of Lucky Man to watch up on so spent the rest of the evening snuggling on the sofa.
A nice, chilled way to end the week before a week full of studying for exams!
