Scotland - On our way there & Edinburgh

Earlier this month we spent a few days in Scotland. We have been to Scotland a few times and we really enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the area.

On our way to Scotland we made a stop in the North East England near where we lived from 1999-2003. We want to show the people with us Escomb Saxon Church. The church was contructed around 670 A.D. with much of the stonework coming from a nearby Roman Fort. It has been a place of Christian worship for over 1,400 years. We continued our journey across the border into Scotland and visited Edinburgh Castle.
