I have 9 bruises on my legs and counting. Each one larger than a quarter. And one larger than ... A piece of toast? I fell up the stairs in Bordeaux. I'm only sharing this because all of the bruises are showing up now and hurting! HA! Too much bumping around on trains and planes and with luggage.
We had an absolutely gorgeous drive through the Scottish countryside today. Mountains, rolling hills, fields, sheep, fuzzy cows, clouds, blue sky, lochs shimmering in the sun... Lovely. Jeff is getting the hang of driving over here so todays drive was even a little relaxing! Made it to the castle, Stonefield Castle, just in time to hike around their small island before sundown. Saw jellyfish, tons of shells and beautiful sunset on the water as we hiked. Had an incredible meal in the restaurant. We splurged on a fancy meal here, and so worth it! Tried some new scotch of course in the "lounge" before dinner. Up early tomorrow to catch the ferry to the Isle of Islay (pronounced Isla) and excited to stay in one place for a couple days. :)
Ok Michelle, you don't need to take after your aunt Wendy with stairs and falling ok? I think of all the weird narrow stairs we climbed on our trip, it's a wonder I didn't fall then! Your pictures and stories are amazing! We are eager to see more photos when you get home. Scotland looks gorgeous and I have to see Mont St Michel someday.
ReplyDeleteA bruise the size of..toast? ha ha ha...sorry, but that was pretty funny when we read that, but not, considering it was because you fell! Stop that already! And keep having a blast, you are having the time of your lives! All within a few weeks time.Loving seeing the pics! xxoo hugs, mom
