Scotland

Edinburgh

24 May 2008
Birm to Edinburgh - we took the scenic route .. I think it was A 701. Memang scenic - I believe Switzerland would look that in summer. Beautiful.

Arrived early at Seton Sands - quickly sent the kids into the pool, which was suppose to close by 1645. The Funworks area gobbled my quids so quickly and I think .. horror .. horror .. Rina is turning into a gambling addict in her quest for tickets (to exchange with gifts).

Edinburgh was really enjoyable. Had a no-rush walk along the Royal Mile and then the northern part of the castle.

Stirling

25 May 2008
On the way to Stirling, saw a sign for Rosslyn Chapel. Well, since I like Da Vinci Code, and this was where the novel climax, had to to swerve by here. Mana la tau, kot2 jumpa holy grail.

The Chapel is in Roslin, a small village just 7 miles from Edinburgh. Roslyn means 'point of the waterfall' in Scottish Gaelic according to some, or 'ancient knowledge down the line' according to others. Centuries of history changed its name into Roslin and is the home of Rosslyn Chapel.

At Stirling, breezed through Stirling Castle. Ingat nak masuk, but then we'll be late for Glasgow.

Nearby, the Wallace Monument on a hill. And it was windy!

Glasgow


Next stop - Glasgow. Another beautiful city, mainly grid pattern.

Went back to Seton Sands. Check out our caravan and the sun set. Menggigil lawan angin tunggu sunset.
