On Friday, we brought home our new car, the gps that we ordered from Amazon got delivered, and we were ready for one of our many road trips to visit the Castles of Scotland. There are over 2,000 castles in Scotland. We became members of the National Trust of Scotland and Historic Scotland to take advantage of
the unlimited castle tours for the next year. We've been in Aberdeen for about a month now and up until Saturday, we were pretty much confined to the city since we didn't have a car. It was nice to finally see the beautiful countryside; and when I say beautiful, I'm not kidding. With the white clouds, blue skies, green pastures and colorful flowers, I'd have to say that the happiest cows are in Scotland...haha.Here are some pictures from the castles we visited.
Drum
Crathes
Craigievar
Dunnottar
We also took advantage of another beautiful Sunday and spent the afternoon in a town 15 miles south of Aberdeen called Stonehaven. It's amazing how you can drive just 15 miles and have such different scenery. I'm loving it!
We are heading out to Inverness on Thursday to find Nessie, the Loch Ness Monster =)
