Scotland Part 5 Continued
We walked to the opposite side of the town where the tour bus would be picking us up. The rain started to pick up again while we waited.
I love this picture. That lady had no clue the seagull was standing right next to her. The seagull seemed pretty relaxed being next to a human.
One other couple decided to go to this pickup spot and we waited together in the rain for the bus. Then it was off to our next stop to a town called Falkland in the Kingdom of Fife.
Our tour guide told us about the most popular soda in Scotland called Irn Bru. I was not a fan, I thought it tasted like bubble gum.
This spot was used in the show Outlander.
We walked with our tour guide to Falkland Palace. It was one of the smaller palaces we toured on this trip, but was filled with a lot of history. The Royal Stewart family resided here.
I thought these looked like hidden Mickey's.
One of the private schools near Edinburgh on our drive back to the city. Our tour guide told us they are actually called public schools, which is a little confusing to this American. This building is one of the inspirations for J.K. Rowling's Hogwarts.
It was a fun filled day, but I was happy to get back to our warm dry hotel.
Luckily, the sunshine returned the next day when we had to head to the train station to head back to London. The train was a lot fuller than it was on the way up.
My last sighting of sheep for the trip. We now had a fun filled week in the city of London.
