From the West to the East

Glen Affric and Loch Ness: Sadlly we didn't see the Loch Ness Monster but we saw the lake that it lies in. (if it is true)

Culloden Battlefield: Can't remember ?????????? Mum just told me it was a fight between the Scots and the English. They used to fight a lot. In this fight the English won big time because they were better organised, had more men and were well rested and fed. We have seen a lot of memorials about the fights.

Whisky Tasting: the parents got to taste the whisky but we got to taste WATER. How sad I really wanted some whisky.

Castles: We  went to lot of castles. They were all (cool). One was called a fairy land castles. The fairy land castle was pink.

The drive to Edinburgh: I slept some of it and even missed the huge Forth Bridge. We stopped for coffee and mum said it was the worst coffee she had ever had.

E here - Scotland is a land of two halves: West and East.

The West is: lots of midges, cold (had to wear long johns), wet, windy, promise of red squirrels
The East is: fewer midges, warm (hot), dry, not so much wind, more like NZ, still promise of red squirrels

  1. It was lovely to see photos of you without your jackets on. Glad you had some nice weather at last. Have you found a red squirrel?? I wonder what the food is like in Edinburgh and if you are enjoying it.
