The Stirling Area

Finally in Inverness, where the internet access doesn't suck donkey balls. Here are some of the pics from the Stirling area (including Doune), where we spent Tuesday. I am happy to report that Siri, who has never been to Scotland before, loved both Stirling and Doune Castle and the Wallace Monument. I climbed the latter for the 4th time, and even went on a walk around Doune in the evening.
