Cameron’s School of Martial Arts

Dunrobin Castle and falconry show
The next week we decided we must see the falconry show at Dunrobin Castle. It was so good we caught both shows, morning and afternoon.
Culbokie Primary school faire
Last year we went to the Resolis School Faire but we were a few days late for it, so this year we caught the Culbokie Primary school faire instead.
Culbokie Wood
We are nature lovers and take very opportunity we can to get out and get dirty and also learn something (don’t tell the kids, ha!)
A quick day trip to Cromarty and the Egg Box, what a lucky find
Cromarty is a town about 25 mintues east of Culbokie, at the end of the Black Isle. We took a quick drive there on a windy Sunday afternoon.
Mum’s birthday, Urquardt Castle and Neptune’s Staircase
We’re back in Culbokie, Scotland for another house-sit, just north of Inverness. We are here a few days later this year so first order of business is get settled, then celebrate mum’s birthday!
