Scotland 2010

So where have we been for most of November.  Well, after we quickly put the Halloween display away we packed for a 3 week trip to the UK.

We flew over on Tuesday the 9th and stayed in Edinburgh in a 2 bedroom flat with some friends for 3 nights.  Then we took a train to West Kilbride where we rented Law Castle with 5 other couples and a single person for a week.   We toured all over Scotland and did day trips to Glasgow and into West Kilbride which is on the west coast of Scotland.  The following week we traveled down to Penzance in the Southern tip of Cornwall England and stayed in a 2nd floor apartment overlooking the warf for a week.  We explored most of Cornwall from Land's End to Tintagel to Lizard to St. Austel.  We spent the next 4 nights in a small apartment on the river in Bath where we explored the city and took a tour out to the ancient sites and the cotswolds.  On our last day we took a train into Cardiff Bay and saw the Dr. Who exhibit and where Torchwood and Dr. Who scenes are filmed.
