March 28th
We get off the plane and find the rental car place, there are so many places we are going to Scotland we decided not to mess around. Ulla’s apartment is not too far away. An hour and a half maybe. It is not the safest place ever, kind of the Scottish ghetto if there is such a thing. She lives on the 7th floor of a 12 story high rise that they are trying to tear down. Ulla is a communist and it was interesting hearing her views on what a perfect society would be like. It’s a lot of the things that we want as well, but from a totally different way of getting to it. They are all about protesting and fighting the system. I guess it seemed to me they all know what they don’t want, but maybe aren’t too sure how to create what they do want. She had a book of communes in Britten and that was cool to look through. www.diggersanddreamers.com was the website she told us to look up different communities around the world.
