Homeward Bound

Here's the view from my seat aboard Air Canada 899, Boeing 767 service from London Heathrow to Edmonton.

I have been to Scotland many times and I'm very fond of the place.  It was great to be there with my gal Terri; her first visit to Scotland.   We visited Stirling, Edinburgh, St. Andrews, Falkirk, the Isle of Skye and countless other places along the way.

My grand parents came from Scotland and England on my fathers side; my maternal grandparents were from Ireland.  My fathers father was from Edinburgh.  I never met him as he died before I was born but I thought of him a lot while in Scotland, particularly when in Edinburgh.

Word is that there's a possibility of a return visit yo Scotland in 2015 - suits me!
