Duart Castle is the ancestral home of the Maclean Clan. It turns out that I am a descendent of Maclean Clan Chieftains. That made our trip to the castle very special. They even let me sign the official Maclean Clan book which is reserved for clan members! We met a lot of very nice people, experienced highland history and foods, and saw many interesting sites. We did not see the Loch Ness monster however, even though we searched.
We had a wonderful time, but I am glad to be home. I really missed my quilting studio and JANDA Bend. I have sew many quilting projects waiting for me! Now it is your turn! I enjoy seeing your posts!

Hi April! I'm glad you are safely home, and that you enjoyed Scotland. I haven't visited for a while but Edinburgh was one of our favorite stops. It seems like Hollyrood Palace was there, and we were able to see the Military Tattoo. I would have loved to go into the Highlands. How cool that you are a descendant of the Maclean clan and got to sign the clan heritage book. Happy Monday! ~smile~ Roseanne
