We went to Stirling Castle with Mardy and Jem and learned lots of fascinating Scottish History! Mary, Queen of Scots was born and lived here!!
This is the Wallace Monument from afar.

West Calder



Martin and Jemica are friends of ours from East London, SA. They asked us to stay with them in their home for the weekend! They work on an estate in West Calder and are surrounded by lakes!

Edinburgh is a strikingly beautiful city with imposing architechture. The castle is built from the rock of the hill - completely different to English castles!


Pretty Flowers!


There is a Victorian Rose Garden at Warwick Castle with some beautiful flowers and scents!
