Durham... on the way to Scotland...


This is Sir Walter Scott's house/mansion/castle.  It was so much fun to stop here after hours and hours of the coach ride.  I couldn't believe how much the Scottish people love Sir Walter Scott - there were monuments everywhere in Edinburgh.


This is the inner courtyard of the castle in Durham where we stayed the night.  Not kidding, we actually stayed in a CASTLE!  It was amazing until the fire alarm went off at 5 in the morning and we had to crawl out of our beds to "escape".  Then Erin wouldn't let me put my sweatshirt or shoes on (even though she had hers on) because "we were going to die"... I don't know why I listened to her :)
