Edinburgh Castle: Where the Crown Jewels are kept.
Glamis Castle "The Fairy Tale Castle" Was the childhood home of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. I wish we could have taken pictures of the inside. It was all furnished and decorated. The detail of everything was incredible.
As crazy as this sounds, we would go to the towns where we knew we once had family and stop at cemeteries in hopes of finding a name we did or didn't have. At our second cemetery stop, we found the grave of the only family member that had been buried in Angus county (we later found that out at the Archives). A name we already had but didn't know the location of. This cemetery was so old that you could hardly read any of the tombstones. Lucky for us the grave was hidden back in a corner, and had been protected by trees and shrubs.
Dunnottar Castle: From the 1300's-1700's my ancestors lived here.
If you look close enough you can see Devin sitting at the top of the cliff on the right.
This church was built in the 700's.
The Kissing Gate
This was a tradition they had. The girl would pass through the gate, stand on the opposite
side than the boy and he would have to kiss her to get through.
