Fort William is a lovely town in the western Scottish Highlands, on the shores of Loch Linnhe, and the base for the ones wanting to climb Ben Nevis. On our day in Fort William, we’ve visited two tourist attractions, a museum and a castle, and we’ve done a bit of shopping. In the old part […]
I found out by chance of Brodie Castle. It was close to where we stayed in the north-east of Scotland, so we’ve decided to visit it quickly on the same day we left the east coast for the west coast. Brodie Castle was the ancestral home of the Brodie clan for over 400 years. Even […]
Abertarff House and Inverness is my second post from this wonderful city, with Inverness Museum and Art Gallery published a few days ago. I also mentioned a lovely story from Inverness in my June round-up, when I fed a crow. I will start with Abertarff House, a National Trust property that is free to visit. […]
I mentioned before that we were in the process of renovating the bedrooms. So, now I’m sharing pictures with my bedroom, the latest newly decorated room in our house, after the home office. Unlike the home office, where we’ve made a lot of changes, the bedroom is pretty much the same as it was before. […]
Groam House Museum is a small, free museum, just 30 minutes from Inverness. I was eager to visit this museum because it houses some impressive Pictish stones. Before leaving for Scotland I didn’t have time to read about the Picts, so I was ready to discover their story. At Groam House we’ve had one of […]
Inverness Museum and Art Gallery is one of two museums I’ve visited in Inverness. It is a small but lovely museum. I picked some highlights to show, things that I found interesting. This wolf stone was carved around 1600 years ago. It was found in 1903 built into an old wall. It is amazing how […]
I like to go through the goals I’ve made once a month, so I don’t forget them. This update made me realize how many things I’ve done from the list I made back in January. 2019 Goals: Blogs 1. Pub & Tea room reviews, every other month. I did three, so I’m on track. 1. […]
This month we’ve been on holiday. I still have plenty of blog posts to write with things I’ve seen on our trip to Scotland. It was amazing, I loved it. I can’t wait to go on another holiday in Scotland. While is not decided, of course, I think we are going to spend our time […]
As earlier this month we’ve been on holiday in Scotland, Festus got his fair share of exploring. I wanted to share some pictures with him and ended up with 29! After careful consideration, the total number of pictures came down on a more appropriate 28. The pictures are in the order they were taken, mostly […]
Clava cairn is a Bronze Age circular chamber tomb, about 4,000 years old. There are a group of four cairns and three stone circles, in Inverness, Scotland. Besides this one, there are around 50 more similar cairns in an area round about Inverness. On a plaque it is mentioned that: “On the shortest day of […]
