Adventure...



You're asking yourself "what is THAT?" It's a clootie dumpling, which is a traditional scottish desert. It is a sort of boiled bread that has fruit and nuts in it. It tastes a lot like bread pudding. We both liked it quite a lot. Hard not to like something when it's floating in cream!



This is not a picture from the Western United States, it's from the Cairngorm mountains. Who knew the Scottish highlands were so high?



This is Kilchurn Castle. It's in ruins and you can't go inside, but it's quite pretty. We had to walk through a sheep pasture, complete with sheep poop, to get there.



St. Conan's Church, as viewed from Kilchurn Castle. It's beautiful, but we were both (strangely) disappointed that the building is less than 200 years old...



The shore by Kilchurn Castle. I just thought this was a pretty picture.
