Today we got up early and took a tour. We saw Stirling Castle which was a major player in Robert the Bruce and William Wallace sticking it to the English (think Braveheart). Our tour guide Davina is clearly more than happy to stick it to the English. The castle was very interesting but it was cold and rainy. I would have liked to had more time there, I could get used to sitting on the throne.
After that we drove up into the Highlands, the area we were in was called the Trossachs. Beautiful country side, just like in the movies. We saw loch and nettles and thistle and heather and all kinds of good Scottish flora, fauna and landscapes. It really was beautiful. We stopped at a couple of small towns and road side attractions. At one we got to see Hamish, Heather and their baby Honey a lovely family of Scottish Highland Cattle.
We are back from our Highland tour, just finished dinner and looking to what theatre we want to see.
Till next time,
Booth
PS
I can finally take a handful of change out of my pocket and know how much money I have which is good since there are no paper ones only coins
