We've been back in Scotland for a few days.
On the flight home, what struck me was just how welcoming Americans are. I had reservations before going because of Trump, ICE, Palestine, etc. But what we found was that it didn't matter whether black/white, left/right, rich/poor, all the Americans we met were extremely hospitable & welcoming. (Thank you!π)
I think if we could get more common people talking with common people, & get the politicians out of the way, we would have a much better world.
America, the football results didn't go our way, but to paraphrase Casablanca, "We will always have Boston." π

We were told we'd be shot by ICE, we never saw them
We were told the police would be tough, they partied with us
We were told the Americans didn't want us, they embraced us like family
Stop listening to the 'media' trying to divide us! live your lives and make memories! π§‘
New England - it has been an absolute pleasure. Across Boston, Providence, Newport and many towns in between youβve welcomed us with open arms and unbelievable hospitality, and we canβt thank you enough.
As we begin our journeys to South Florida, we hope itβs not goodbye, but see you again soon. π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ π«ΆπΌ
#TartanArmy #NoScotlandNoParty
Boston has been outstanding. The people have been very friendly. Last night a lovely couple offered us the chance to go up to their rooftop and have a beer. You could hear the Tartan Army singing all over the City. It was an incredible experience. #Boston#tartanarmy@boston25
Dear @elonmusk, you're a trillionaire now, can you pay to keep the #TartanArmy in the US until after the Fourth of July? They are a spending $$ throughout Boston, Providence. The longer they are here for #WorldCup2026, the better America looks globally. #America250 could be epic.

Boston and Glasgow are becoming official partners.
Mayor Michelle Wu announced plans for a new partnership between the two cities, building on historic ties and the goodwill created by the 2026 World Cup.

At this rate Freddy - after gaining 20 pounds - will be flying back to Germany on the back of a bald eagle, shooting an AR-15 while drinking Miller Lite, flanked by F-35s streaming red, white, and blue across the sky while Free Bird is playing from the heavens.
