We're The Kings and Queens Of The Castle


Friday was moving day, again. We came southeast from Oban, following the shores of Loch Lomond. We crossed the Erskine Bridge over the Firth of Clyde skirting Glasgow, and then south west to Maybole and Culzean (pronounced coolaine) Castle.

The drive was uneventful, but Loch Lomond is beautiful in the autumn. Arriving at a castle in the golden, evening sunlight is rather a pleasant way to end a day. We passed through the stone arches with signs saying, PRIVATE, RESIDENTS ONLY. There was lots of laughter in the car. I’m fairly certain that, no matter what anyone would say, deep inside, each of us is playing kings and queens.



Brewhouse Flat






The rooms of the Brewhouse Flat are huge and comfortable and surprisingly warm. It is decorated in antiques and the kitchen in very well equipped with fine china etc. Outside our windows is a cliff face that drops to the sea. We have great sunsets.
For our last week together in Scotland, it’s not bad.
