Scotland on the banks of the river or rather the Firth of Forth April 2007

These picture were taken April 2007 on a short holiday to Berwick upon Tweed and Scotland this day we spent on the banks of the river Forth at the village of Queensferry on the far side is the Kindom of Fife. The first picture is of Steve, Debbie and my loving wife Pat.
You will notice that the rail bridge in under repair and we are surrounded by very dark clouds, but the rail held off.

Several years ago I read a series of novels by Jane Duncan, about growing up in Scotland, and she mentioned The Firth of Forth more than once. I just love the way those words sound: Firth of Forth!

Those bridge shots are amazing.

Hello Brian,
I came over from Sara's blog. I'm one of the three who visited Getty Villa.

I am looking forward to your posts about York Minster. I was in York and visited the cathedral in 2004.
