What an amazing opportunity!

I can't even begin to express what an amazing experience I have had during this past month.  From the work with Booking Dance, and now the whirlwind that has been Green Room Presents.  For GRP I have already seen 4 shows, and have 2 more to see tomorrow.  For each show we see we have to write up a ful review about it for Cal and Stuart to use when looking for acts for the coming years festivals etc.  That in itself has been an amazing experience, but it doesn't end there.  We have also written press releases for the happenings of their shows, made publicity reports with info of all industry people that came to each show, the number of tickets sold, and AL press about the show.  Of course, with all of this came more flyering, but I am fine with that sicne we have had such an amazing experience with everything else!  While it was much more intense, and busy, and crazy- it was so much more like the "Fringe" that I had been expecting.  LONG hours, running from place to place, everything.  Speaking about running- yesterday I found out I had to see a show in I think it was like 35 minutes or something, but I had to get to the OTHER side of town to get the pass, and then back to the side of town I was on in time.... Not to mention the path to and from included the CRAZY High Street, where it is like a stand still.  I RAN through the city in the bike lane in the streets, became part of a street performers act when he chased after me, but all in all made it to the show- AMAZING by the way.  And Cal said I broke the land speed record for getting from one side of Edinburgh to the other and back again!! :)

Anyways, I have LOTS and LOTS of amazing pictures that I will add tomorrow probably after I get out of work (I have the early shift tomorrow. YAY!) because the internet is being SUPER slow right now for some reason. 

But to give you a preview of what you will see...Hollyrood palace, pictures from the top of Arthurs seat, me in my new kilt!, and others as well!!!! GET READY!  Last full day in Edinburgh tomorrow (at least for now, but I know I will be back SOON!)

See you all tomorrow- pictures coming! :)
