Clitheroe

Yes, it does look like Clit-heroe, but pronounced, Clith-er-o. You! Cheeky!

Very pretty country and cute town, too bad most shops were closed on a sunday.

Clitheroe Castle

London Calling!

Took the train to London (only took 2hours!!) to visit the folks on their British adventure. They treated us to a lovely Thai dinner and then to the show 'Jersey Boys' which was EXCELLENT!!! Very fun and worth seeing if you're in London, (or New York). We checked out the British Museum on Sunday, as well as the market at Covent Garden and a few soho pubs. Ask Grant about the 'Duke of Lancaster' pub and the guy with no shirt and v. short cut off jean shorts.

The British Museum Backwards man, backwards man, I can walk faster backwards than you can!!

Trafalgar square!

On the train back home to Preston, sigh...

Auchentoshan! (Scotch Whiskey Distillery)

Auchentoshan!! Gesundheit!
Pronounced (awk-en-taw-shen), a cool distillery outside Glasgow. Grant got some souvenirs!!

We are now experts on making Scotch Whiskey

Triple distilled!

Glen Nevis

I had to post some pictures of the B&B we stayed in. It was perfect, a nice big room with a big comfy bed...

but the best part was the big ol' bathtub!!! A nice hot relaxing bath and nice smelling products from the Highland soap company!!!

The fog was so low around the mountains and we couldn't even see Ben Nevis, and we weren't up to attempting to climb it, so we walked through Glen Nevis which was beautiful.

Watering the flowers??

The Loch Ness Monster!!!

The loch ness monster 'vEXHIBITIONr' centre.

There are two Loch Ness exhibition centers. One is a highly rated 4 star department of Tourism destination, the other one is an awesome low rent typo-fest. Guess which one we chose?

Ahhh, memories from the "Nessie's Layer" gift shop. Yes, I am not misquoting their spelling.

We believe too!!

'AVE IIIIIIIIIT!!

Urqhart Castle...very cool

Ohhh, we just missed catching Nessie on film, but you can see her wake...
This is what becomes of me after 2 minutes in solitary confinement.
I was subsequently executed and my head disposed of among the rubble.
Laura met the same end.
