The heather that Pete picked for me since it was my birthday (he picked it for all the girls, really)....
Through the ruined walls of Ardvrek Castle...
Ardvreck Castle (haunted, Andrea...apparently the daughter married the Devil to keep the castle safe and SHE WAS NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT)...
Culloden...
Ben and I on my birthday at Corrieshalloch Gorge...

Heather along the road....
A yummy cheese shop in Dunkeld....I had to say no, but it was fun to look....
We had a great weekend, seeing parts of Scotland that none of us had seen, enjoying our fun tour guide, feeling restored by the beauty of the Highlands, and appreciating the yummy breakfast and homemade oat cookies that Molly, the owner of the B&B that Ben and I stayed in, made for us. She was lovely and asked how we were getting on after losing Michael Jackson. On Saturday morning the students had a birthday muffin with a candle in it for me and sang Happy Birthday:) Ben sneaked in two pairs of pretty earrings that he'd had time to pick up during the last week at Rosslyn Chapel and at a store where he'd bought me earrings when we were dating. Sweet.
We're finishing our first full day in Glasgow now...took the open top bus tour and had a killer good group meal at Wagamama's Noodle Bar.
Love,
Robyn and Ben
