New photos!
So, yeah, we had a great time at Ryvoan Lodge. So relaxing! Wish the weather had been nicer. When we arrived, we could see the Cairngorms, but by Saturday morning, they were gone, not to be seen again until Monday morning, when we were leaving. Managed to get some good pics, though, as the cloud lifted. The clouds are so low here!
The lodge was so cool! Out in the middle of nothing but farmland, it didn't look like much on the outside, but even peeking in the windows as we got the keys sorted out, it looked amazing. Such a modern interior, with wall-to-ceiling windows in the living room, in this plain looking lodge out in the middle of nowhere.
It was also great to spend the time with Anne and Les, and their boys Graham, Christopher and Steven and their respective ladies Emma, Nicola and Moira. They are a great bunch, and they were all so wonderful with Holly. We want them to all come live in Canada.
We had fun in Glasgow yesterday. It's not as historic a city as Edinburgh or Stirling, but still featured some interesting buildings, thus it was mostly a shopping/browsing trip for us. We did find the theatres and saw Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, as well.
It's raining again, and it will, off and on, it seems, until maybe Monday? We booked a train trip into Aberdeen for that day, where they have a Waterhouse gallery. We found out that if we had planned in advance, we could have taken the train into Alton Towers or elsewhere for cheap. But alas, with a week left in our trip, no deals to be had, nor do we really have the extra time now. Next trip...
Talk to y'all soon...
Update, we're going back to Lochend Farm for soup today! MMMMM!

Have any sheep lung and kidney pie yet? I'm still waiting for the pics and reviews of a deep fried mars bar.
Speaking of sheep, "Black Sheep" opens here tomorrow. Not playing in Red Deer but I think a trip up to Edmonton is warranted. Let me know when you get back.
Later
