Second bunch of photos.
We've been taking it slow these last few days. It has been cold and cloudy, but not much rain. So far this trip, on various day trips, we've been to Callendar, Striling (a few times) , Edinburgh, and Perth (to the Caithness Glass factory and showroom). This weekend is Ryvoan Lodge up north, next week should include some visits to castles, hopefully on sunnier days to get some good photos. We'll be going to Glasgow as well.

Alton Towers, as it turns out, is a lot farther away than I thought it was, so that part of the trip isn't going to happen. It's a long way to go just for me to go on rollercoasters, though Anne and Les were perfectly willing to take us there for that purpose. We'll be spending so much time in cars going to the other, local places, I can't justify strapping the kid into a car seat for 7 hours each way, plus dealing with Manchester traffic, which I had overlooked. We don't have the time to do it in 3 hour jaunts and stay overnight and sightsee at each stop. Maybe next time, when Holly is older and can have fun there as well.
