Scotland was great fun!!

Well! what a week we have had!
we caught the train from Kings Cross Station (yep! the one where the Harry Potter Movies were filmed/set). we spent 4 hours on the train then got off at Ednburgh.

The next day we toured around Edinburgh and saw the sights, then went to Edinburgh Castle. and made our way down 'the Royal Mile' which is a street that runs between the Castle and Parliment House.

The next day we were off on another tour, this tome to an island called Skye. Along the way on the 3 day tour we saw many sights, including Duane Castle where the Monty Pythons and The Holy Grail was filmed, the Fairy Glen where there are 356 Mounds that are made in the strangest way (wont explain here - its confusing!), Kilt Rock, Dunvgan Castle which is the home to the clan MacPherson which is home to the 'Fairy Flag' (again, i can exlain that when i get back - it has a good story!) then Dun Beag Brock which was an old hill top fort, and this gave a great view to the Cullin Mountain range and to Sgurr Alisdair.
we then headed back on the return trip to edinburgh and along the way we stopped at Eilean Donan Castle which mum explained to me that it was famous for being famous, the Loch Ness but no sign of the monster and then arrived in the city in the evening.

We spent the next day seeing the sights of the city, then yesterday we caught the train to Darlington where we are staying at my nanas friends place.

We have had a really nice and quiet day which hgas been a nice change from flying around!

We're having great fun, but i will be glad to be home! I could really do with a holiday after this! :P
