Day 9. Scotland tour
Our last day and we started with a view of Inverarry Castle where Downton Abbey filmed the Christmas party. We were in the heart of the Campbell country in the Highlands.
By 12:30 we were finally out of the mountains and visiting Stirling Castle, home to the Stuart Kings. Now we were also in Robert Bruce country. A huge and very old castle that was ready for tourists with costumed guides and many artifacts and helpful story boards. I walked most of the outside wall and we both loved the tapestry display about the recreation of the unicorn tapestries that took 13 years to make and are now in NYC.
We spent nearly 3 hours there before stopping at Bannockburn to view the battle monuments. Then on to Edinburgh and our original hotel for our last night and celebration dinner. Tomorrow we fly home. Thank you for joining me on my travels this summer.
