This is a facinating place and a total ruin since the 1650's. We spent quite a lot of time looking in all the corners of the remaining ruins, quite a sad history really but a beautiful spot. We then let Kathy have her daily go-cart driving on the back roads near by, visiting two early churches and graveyards. We visited the site of the most important contributor of modern Scottish literature, Lewis Grassic Gibbon. There was a tea shop.
He is buried not far away so we visited there and discovered a gem of place. This time it was the flocks of grouse that caught our attention for quite awhile.
The church was very old, check out this part, I got a picture of because I am tall.
Then off to Stonehaven to have an early dinner, this is the fish and chips capital of Scotland.
Kathy loves to take pictures if sheep, these are my favorites..
