Eileen Donan Castle

When we were planning our Scottish trip, this was on my wish list of places to visit. I had seen fabulous photos of it and in my imagination it was set in a remote area with a very scenic approach. Not so. There are some very skilled photographers around! We sent a couple of hours wondering around the tourist focussed village and castle, and then continued on our journey.

I am posting a whole month after our trip. This being retired business doesn't seem to have freed me up more time to keep up with things here. Or I haven't quite worked out the rhythm yet. We keep going away!
A wonderful shot

The freedom of being able to go away when you want is one of the benefits of retirement! Its wonderful! This is really iconic! Even has a moat!

You found a great pov. Well done. And I agree about the time to keep up when retired. There are so many interesting things to do and see that the time to 'keep up' diminishes.

Oh I know the feeling - it is so easy to get behind when away, and we seem to be away all the time too. In fact heading away again this week. Can't wait, but will be getting so behind!! This scene looks so amazing. How iconic!
