Bothwell Castle

Luis and I decided to go see Bothwell Castle today. We had a great time! Luis packed a picnic, which consisted of 2 sandwiches, coke for one person, and a small bag of chips for one person. So cute, but next time I'll pack the picnic. Haha!

Bothwell Castle was built in the 1200's on a bend by the River Clyde. It has been owned by many people. Walter of Moray, and then his son William of Moray, then Edward I overtook Bothwell Castle when he invaded Scotland in 1296. Then the Scots took it back in the 1300's. Bothwell Castle has been owned by The Crown since the 1500's and is now cared for by Historic Scotland.

We took a walk by the river, it was so peaceful! We enjoyed the walk/hike and it was a beautiful sunny day! It was great to get outside and see Historic Scotland!!

Our Flat

We rent the smallest flat known to mankind. I'm pretty sure of it.

If there are any contenders I'd like to see the photos.

Last weekend I spent the whole weekend re-arranging the flat so that it would some how give us more space. I did pretty well! I found us more space, and enjoy the layout alot better!!

Tell me what you think!

So I finally started a blog....

Well here I am everyone! I thought this would be a great place to keep everyone up to date on all that is happening with us here in Scotland.

Moving here 3 days after we got married has been quite the adventure for us, but we're adjusting to life amongst the Scots and ready for any adventures that come our way.

We are just an American girl and a Venezuelan/Portuguese boy who decided to stop living the long distance dating life and get hitched. These are our stories.

This is My Life in Scotland.
