HI Rachel ........I was just going to ask about the dog Stig ...I thought maybe someone had taken him to a doggie motel or something because I heard no mention of him...............I know you must be enjoying your time with him too when you come home after a day away.......he must be really excited to see you!!!!.....love to all..........Gramma
Fat seals That was a really good pic of the seals. When I was a kid we used to go to Aberdour for holidays and I would go fishing for crabs off the dock and also in the tide pools. Then we'd cook up and eat them. Yummy! Did that in Edinburgh, too. All you need is a piece of stick wrapped with sturdy twine, a hook and sinker. Best bait source is down on the rocks. You pry of the shell fish clinging to the rocks, scoop out the flesh and put it on the hook.best time to crab? Evening, twilight time.
Love Granpa

We Love Our Rachie & Russell Hi Precious Rachie...............when I as a little 10 year old kid and my Dad (one of your Great Grampas) visited my Grandparents (your Great Great Grandparents) and other relatives in England during the Summer of 1949 (that's 63 years ago !!), one of the activities that I enjoyed the most was riding on the upper level of double decker buses !............I'm happy that you and your family are doing some travelling on double decker buses............the man who makes the rounds on the bus collecting fares is call a "Clippie"..................are you and Russell wearin' your kilts as you travel around ?...........I hope you are...............have you eaten any more fish and chips ?..............do they have ketchup in Scotland ?...............how about Nutella ?.............have you sent any blogs to Megs, Amy & Molly & your other cousins ?..................we love to receive your blogs and hear about all your daily excursions...............much love.......xoxoxoxo......Gramps

Really? I thought you didn't like dancing……???
Well, what did you do other than eat, sleep, shop, and other things that you did NOT mention in your blog?
Good times! Hi Rachel, i am enjoying reading your blogs with Molly. When I read you were in Dornoch, I just had to leave a comment. Did you know I was born in Inverness which is just around the corner from Dornoch? When I was young we would go Dornoch when we were going to a friend's farm. When I was young there was no bridge to Skye and we had to swim. Just kidding, we took the ferry. I always remember having fish and chips when we got there. Yum! I also remember watching the dolphins when I was little. That's so cool that you saw sharks! Maybe you'll see my family's castle. It's called Eilean Donan and it's pretty popular for people to visit. Sure beats my castle in Whitby. So eat lots of chocolate (the best) and eat lots of fish n chips. Try my favourite beer, it's called Tartan. Mmmmm! Oops, I forgot you're too young. Have fun! ?.
