April 2001 - Scotland

We flew from Toronto to Amsterdam and then to Edinburgh where we picked up a car.

Me, killing time in Amsterdam airport.

First digital camera!!

On our way to our timeshare accommodations in Aberfoyle we stopped in Luss, home to Loch Lomond.

Here's a lovely new version of the old singalong favourite.

Almost in the centre of the photo on the beach is a lone bagpiper playing.

Pretty cottages in Luss.

You can see the piper leaving.

Settled in. We attended a Scotch tasting session hosted by the timeshare one evening, it was a good thing we didn't have  to go very far to our condo.

John discovered his scotch of choice on this trip.

Inveraray Castle

Mull of Kintyre sheep

We all know the song "Mull of Kintyre" by Wings (Paul Mc Cartney).

A while after this trip we were watching a Scottish movie, My Name is Joe (1998) and a scene was filmed here in the town of Tarbert, Argyll. 

The highlight for John was playing at St. Andrew's where we spent a night and had great curry for dinner.

John may have had a gorgeous day to golf but the next day as we drove back to Aberfoyle it poured and we got a flat in Pittenweem. But the auto association came to our rescue and fixed the tire.

Another day we drove to Stirling Castle. It looked much the same in 2010.

Lunch in Stirling.

William Wallace - It made us laugh as he looks like Mel Gibson!

We then flew to Ireland and spent a week around Ireland 2001 Ballybunion.

I first traveled to England with my Mom in 1960

My parents took us back as a family in 1970.
