Scotland and Ireland in April

Nick and I have signed up for the bank's latest offering --a 13 day excursion to Northern Ireland and Scotland leaving Brownwood March 29th, 08. Anyone out there who'd like to join us, let me know and I'll send you a brochure. I'm particularly looking forward to having a meal at Stirling Castle home of Mary Queen of Scots (I guess I didn't get enough of castles in Scandinavia) Other items of interest are St. Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin (not Texas), Loch Lomand, Edinburgh Castle (another of Mary Q of Scots' residences) and a visit to Bellerk Pottery-internationally known for its china. Even though Haggis is a native dish of Scotland, I hope no one offers me any to eat--it sounds really gross--something about sheep's stomachs. Since I'm completing reading a series of books dealing w/ the Celtic beginnings of English history, this trip should be fascinating. AND I WILL BE ABLE TO READ STREET SIGNS! That always makes me feel more comfortable. E
