Today we had a great day at the Royal Highland Show in Ingliston near Edinburgh Airport. The sun shone for most of the day despite the odd heavy rain shower. We managed to get to see so much at the show and Terri and Fraser came to meet us there.
My favourite parts were the sheep - this must be one of the greastest selection of Scottish Sheep anywhere - all shapes sizes and colours (we saw one which was bright organge). Fraser loved the cows especially the Belted Galloways they are so beautiful.
The boy climbed a climbing wall and the girls shopped and lapped up all the freebies that get given out at the show.
We headed back to the cottages with a quick diversion into Lanark for supplies then ate delicious beef casserole and butter potatoes - yummy!
Sarah and I taugh everyone a really neat game called Backpacker and we spent the evening visiting countries all over the world. Emily was the champion, Andy was the loser - boo hoo!
Tommorrow we have decided to switch acents so Andy will be speaking with an American acenet and Brian with a Scottish acent - good luck with that Brian! Today was a really good day. I hope everyone enjoyed it like I did!
