It was a beautiful sunny, warm Saturday when we drove east to Tantallon Castle, as you can see it is right on the Firth of Forth. The large rock in the background of one of the shots is Bass Rock. There is a light house there and it used to be the home of a few hardy monks but know is home only to the birds who roost there. Tantallon Castle is only about a forty minute drive from our flat. We were there and back in time for Carolina's baptism.

While we were exploring this castle ruin we were wishing that TJ and Kyra ages 10 and 6 were with us, they would have loved the hidden passageways, the expansive green lawns, the rocks to climb.
