Pictures 12/28/2019

These are our pictures on the 28th from Edinburgh to the castle.


Balintore Castle

Before we left Edinburgh, we all had coffee near the Christmas village next to the train station.



April had hot chocolate. Which she did not like.
It is the same as hot chocolate in Rome.




Even before coffee, we had to drag our luggage down the streets like April.


We got our rental car and started the long drive to the castle.
Missy found us a great restaurant for lunch.

After a long and winding drive
(and a really great lunch along the way),

This is the great room where we lounged and had our dinner.






We turned the lights out and lit the candelabra for dinner. 





Troy's dessert was much better than the mulled wine pear dessert Momma let him try at lunch.

We did take a few wrong turns along the way, but not by much. We did not end up in France or anything.  The Tower Hill Station was great for us as it is just a couple of blocks from Tower Hotel where we stayed with a fantastic view of Thames. The elevators need work, but the hotel is great. Stay there any chance you get to London. Get a river view room or even a view of the bridge if o...
