Yeah I'm here with my Scottish family, so good to see them, they make me laugh so much.
The first day I arrived we went to Ayr, nice town. I had a scottish breakfast, not keen on black pudding!
Today we went to Stirling Castle, Banockburn and the wallace monument. SO much history 9it was great. I climbed the monument, a memorial to William Wallace the hero of Scotland, (Braveheart) all the way up these tiny narrow spiral 246 steps. I got a certificate to prove it! An the view at the top was amazing, but freezing. Scotland is beautiful.
Then we went to the famous battle of bannockburn sight and I got to try out all the old weapons fun!
Stirling Castle was reall nice, on topof a hill with another great view it had a great hall and gorgeous chapel and the great kitchens showed preparations for a great feast, it was cool.
Afterwards had dinner in a pub in Stirling and then went to see The Holiday at the movies, good lighthearted Christmas film.
