Thanks for the pics.Killin and Lochtay..
I was born and bred on the north bank of the Tay in Dundee.
Angus and Perthshire were my old cycling and hiking areas from the sixties to the nineties.

Fond memories of Lochearnhead...Wishing you and yours a wonderful holiday and hopefully.... great weather.

Great pics. Looks like you have all the comforts (or most of them) of home with you. Now I REALLY want to get myself to Scotland someday...

By-the-by, my neighbor is a Killinder. No, really. That's his family name. Seems sometime waaaayy back, some of his ancestors left Killen, Scotland and went to Ireland. When they got there, the question (no, not THAT question!) was asked "who are ye?", or something to that effect, and they said, "We're Killinders!". And it stuck.
