Dunnottar Castle

On Thursday June 22nd we went to Dunnottar Castle which was about an hour out of Edinburgh. Here’s a link to the wikipedia article for the castle. It seems that the 1990 movie Hamlet (with Mel Gibon and Glenn Close) was filmed here. :)


I stuck my hand out of the sunroof to get a picture of the Forth Road Bridge. Not great, but I tried! The second picture is Liza, Michael, Heshani, myself and my mom outside of McDonald’s where we stopped to have lunch. When we reached the countryside just outside the castle I saw some cows. :)


We walked up to the castle and saw some rabbits. Can you spot them? Finally a pic of the castle looking over the North Sea.


M and Hesh, then M, Liza, mom, Joanna and I. Finally is M showing Liza some birds probably.


Here are some of my more artistic pictures with the light shining through. :) The first pic is the archway as you enter the castle. Second, was the [small] area where they kept the Christian prisoners during war times. Last is the window the Christians could look out of! :)


The first pic is a hearth which reminded my mother of her grandmother’s old house or something. Nothing really exciting, but I took the picture for her. :) Secondly, the dining room and the ceiling.


Joanna, Liza and I, then Liza and Hesh and finally a pic that I wanted where you can see an interesting structure in the distance. I asked the girl at the front what it was and she told me it was a war memorial.


These are the pictures when we went to the small “museum”. Someone wrote a long entry in the guestbook abo
ut paranormal activity and how they were disappointed they hadn’t seen any. I didn’t want anyone else to feel bad, so I made sure to mention I didn’t see anything paranormal either. Unfortunately, Joanna didn’t see any puffins, but I saw one! :D


Finally some pictures of the castle as we walked away. That concludes my trip to Dunnottar castle! :)
