Scone is the place where many of the Scottish kings including Robert the Bruce were crowned; all on this site since 849ad. Again an impressive collection of 12th to 18th century art and artifacts and very worth the entry price. The real feeling of Scottish history is real and present. Again like Blair this is a real residence with owners and their families who have lived on the property for hundreds of years. The combination of art and artifacts we have seen today rivals that of a portion of the Louve in Paris, particularly concerning the 14-18th centuries.

Ahhh back home in Aberfeldy, 540 miles now on the Hyundai, and another wee dram.
