Jay, I give you a lot a credit for driving in a foreign country let alone one that drives on the opposite side of the road. I don't think I would have the nerve to ever do that.
That book Dee is so good. I loved it. I love those highland cows. My oldest daughter got married in a beautiful barn on a farm in PA and they had a herd of hairy coos. They were so adorable and big.
I really enjoy your videos. I appreciate your narratives on your journeys and the adventures are fun and interesting. Your personalities are nice, funny, and honest. Keep enjoying life.
I traveled around Scotland in early August. Drove a rental car, experienced the challenging multiple exit roundabouts and had my worst driving experience in Stirling trying to get to the castle. It was crazytrain there. We opted to get out of there asap. We saw the most Highland Coos on the Isle of Mull. Attended the Military Tattoo, which will be one of the highlights of my life. You two are a favorite channel for me. You make me want to go go go. Heading to NYC next week to get on Princess to cruise North.
Love the hairy coos, love the Kelpies, and my engineer husband enjoyed revisiting the Falkirk wheel. We had been there a few years ago on a Princess excursion. Lovely but wet part of the world. Thank you!
Dee, I can't believe you are just now getting around to Where the Crawdads Sing. I watched the movie on a plane, because we have to fly everywhere being land locked in the middle of the country. It's so, so good. I bet the book is better.
I read the book and then I've just watched the movie. They did a great job sticking close to the book for the movie. But I generally always prefer the book haha.
I walked up to Stirling Castle after parking in the “downtown” area. I went into the entry area and looked around, but didn’t actually enter the castle proper. I would’ve loved to have done the Wallace Monument, but it wasn’t within walking distance in a timely manner.
For your passport that you talked about on the live the other day you could go to the Miami same day passport office for the renewal after getting off the Sunn Princess it may cost a little more but you would have it done and not worry about for the months you are at home
The Falkirk Wheel was to be the highlight of our British Isles cruise and we got CANX on the excursion inmid June. So disappointing. The substitute excursion was not worth the money.😢. Going to try again in a few years 😊
I had hoped ye guys would’ve went to The Helix and checked out The Kelpies. I wanted to see them so bad, but no tours (independent or otherwise) went there.
I'm guessing you don't have to get a "European" drivers license anymore. My father in love had to way back when he took his mother in law, grandma and her other daughter to go to Ireland/Scotland. Want to say 1986 or 87.
I drove a stick shift on the left side of the road in Grand Cayman years ago. I did OK until I turned into a driveway and forgot and went into the right lane instead of the left. 🥹
