Our Next Move

Our eighth month in Edinburgh is coming to a close and we have news!  Brandlyn has been offered a two year contract in the Middle East teaching English to primary students.  We have decided to accept the offer, so it is now official that we will be moving to Abu Dhabi in the UAE in August.  We are excited about our next move to the  center of the "ring of fire".   Although many countries around the UAE are currently in unrest, the UAE itself has a thriving economy and is investing in their people as well as their infrastructure.   Our time in Scotland has been amazing and we will enjoy our next few months here to the fullest!

John is very excited to begin his career in Camel Racing.

7 Months In

We are in our 7th month here in Edinburgh and are enjoying it more and more each day.  Spring has arrived and it is beautiful.  Thought we should share some pics with you!
A sunny day in East Princes St. Gardens
These flowers are everywhere!

This weekend is the IATEFL Conference in Brighton.  Brandlyn will be going, so there will be more pictures to come.  However, you don't need to go to Brighton to find beaches!


On a sunny day you can find people swimming even when it is 50 degrees!

We were not those people


More posts and pictures  to come soon and hopefully regularly!
