We journeyed on by train from Oban to Aberdeen and spent the next week visiting the city and helping our friends prepare for their wedding. Aberdeen University is one of the world's oldest and most respected and is quite beautiful. This red ivy-covered building is part of King's College, and our college-missionaries are gathered here in front of it.
Saint Machar's Cathedral was established in Aberdeen in the late 500's, and is a beautiful church building, worthy of your visit. Just wish we had had more time at every location to really investigate .
Our long-time friend Sarah Herman and Rob Malcolm, originally from Glasgow, were married in Aberdeen on 7 October. About ten or so of us from the States were able to be there and celebrate with them.
We've known Sarah and her parents since she was two. She and our children played together in Lincoln. Our Daughter Sabrina and Sarah roomed together at Southwest Missouri State University.
The ceremony was followed by a lovely dinner and a ceilidh (pronounced: "kay-lee"; Celtic for "party".) There was a fun band and the music was a mix of rock and roll and Scottish country dance music. We loved it!
