Day 8 – The Duke of Argyll’s Castle
It’s only a short walk from the town of Inveraray to The Duke of Argyll’s Castle. It’s an impressive place both from the outside and inside. No photos are allowed of inside Inveraray Castle but you can get a sense of it but clicking on this link. The Chief of the Campbell Clan has one heck of an abode.

A standing stone is off the road to the castle. There must be more standing stones in the Argyll than the rest of Scotland and Ireland combined.

Day 8 – The Duke of Argyll’s Castle



One of things, I had already determined about Chris is he knows everyone. You can easily observe how everyone is delighted to see and talk to him. As I surveyed one of the Castle’s rooms, I really didn’t pay too much attention to Chris chatting with one of workers carrying some bags of clean laundry. A bonnie lass who was just going about her duties. When Chris caught up with me, he commented The Duchess has a lot to do today. Then it hit me like a load of bricks, connecting the face to the photographs of the Duchess!
There is much on display in the castle and you could spend many a day soaking it all in.

Day 8 – Evening Sight Seeing
We left Inveraray, and Chris was single tracking through the country side.


We stopped to soak in the beauty of Lock Awe.


Chris is wearing his Inveraray tweed kilt. That is one beauty of a tartan. I wearing my Newsome single box pleat XMarks tartan kilt.

Not only do I utter the words "mint sauce" I also use the words "horseradish sauce" at the cattle wandering around the roads. Great pictures, great scenery,great place.Of course I may be a wee tad biased!
