Christmas in Scotland

Some pre-Christmas Day present opening - Yay

Getting ready to bring Good Cheer to the UK

Edinburgh - Great view from the hotel.  Not that the kids even looked outside.

Christmas Day - After Church time for the Christmas dinner  - very nice too

Boxing Day - Leaving Sunny Edinburgh for Laide over the Tay bridge (what a view!)

Things cleared up pretty quick though, making our way through the Grampians to Inverness

Turn left at Inverness and keep going - of course if you want this scenery you might just as easily take the national Park route to Taupo.

Finally there - Home sweet home for the next 6 days.  The neighbours are pretty quiet.

Not doing much! Down to the beach here and in Ullapool to collect sea glass for Sarah's necklace.

The three wisemen down the lane

Mind you, not too much time for sight seeing - 4 pm and its time to put the fire on. - Wish you were here.
