Ooooh lovely thanks AS..yes I know the airport is on the beach...and the castle is quite tiny...but I'd love to go...The trouble is it's such a long journey from here and expensive too and the chances that once we got there it would be pouring of rain..LOL..
 

Ameriscot, thanks so much for posting these. They are lovely and they really make me want to return to Scotland and see more. I've been to England many times but Scotland only once.
 
We caught the ferry in Oban and it took 5 hours. Never considered flying. We were very lucky since it only rained one day during the entire week.

Instead of paying to take the car on the ferry, which we wouldn't need, we took our bikes and piled our luggage on them and in backpacks.

You're welcome! IMO Scotland is the most beautiful country I've ever seen.

This is the the 12 room farm cottage where Anne Hathaway the wife of William Shakespeare..grew up, and where he courted here until they married. It's in Stratford-Upon-Avon..and was built before the 16th century. It was restored after a fire some years later and is now owned by the National trust and is open to the Public as a museum
