Castles and Gardens

So often on this trip I've wished I could drink up the scenery. It's that scrumptious. Taking a photograph doesn't seem enough. I want to inhale it, to soak it up through my pores. 

And then there are places I want to photograph because they're iconic. Eilean Donan Castle falls into this category. You see pictures of the place in guidebooks and on calendars. So today we drove there, not a short distance I might add. It was lovely, of course — it's a castle in Scotland. 

But then we walked around to the nearby village of Dornie, and I saw the most enchanting garden, and well, that's the place I wanted to inhale today.
