Greetings from Scotland and our Ambassadorial Scholar from last year.

Dear Mr. Williams and Mr. Coleman,

I hope that all is well in Pflugerville; I'm doing extremely well here in Scotland. My Host Rotarian is absolutely wonderful, and she took me to her club last night to be introduced and meet all the Rotarians. I was struck at the similarities that I found. It was a group of extremely friendly and warm people who had a good time together and at the same time did quite a bit to help those in the community. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised; that is what Rotary is largely about, no doubt. There were some differences, however. The weather here permitted them a bit more of a formal attire--it is not over 100 here after all--so they wore mostly sport coats, with some ties. Also, the meeting was at night, rather than at lunch, though there is a lunch club which I'm sure I will meet soon.

That is about all I have to report for now; I presented them with a Pflugerville Club banner, and they were happy to receive it. I'll be sure to procure a banner from them to send home at the earliest convenience. Thanks again,

-Michael-
