June 21 Heading North to Scotland

Mom, Sara, Kate and Rory. We had a lovely time in Rodden Manor and could not have asked for better hosts. Thanks much, you two!



Thursday-June 21
Did you know that the keyboards on the computers over here are different? Takes a little getting used to.

Yesterday we drove up from Frome to Rosewell, just south of Edinburgh. We stopped regularly but our only tourist stop was at an ancient Roman fort on Hadrian's Wall where we were able to walk the layout and commune with some sheep. I am writing this at an internet cafe so will load the pictures later.

Our cottage for the next few days is in a wooded mature garden setting and I am thoroughly enjoying the books in the library. I found one on funny last wills and testaments and it gave us all the giggles this morning. We caught the bus into Edinburgh, about 55 minute drive, and it is misty and foggy and you cannot see the castle from where we are on the Royal Mile, but hopefully it will burn off soon. More later.
