Scottish holidays, By Oskar Mayer


Saturday March 26th 2010. The flight started in Vienna at 7 o’clock. We flew via Amsterdam to Glasgow and then we drove by car to Garlieston which is situated in the Wigtown-Bay in the southwest of Scotland.

On the way we stopped at Loch Doon because we wanted to see the Loch Doon Castle.

Scottish SceneThen we drove through the Galloway forest Park to Garlieston. Our house has the name Park Cottage and stands directly at the sea.

On Sunday I got up very early in the morning to go for a walk along the sea shore with my father.

It was very interresting because we could see the tide coming in.

After the breakfast my parents and I went for a long walk around the coast to the ruin of castle Cruggleton.

The only thing that was standing there was a big arch. It was very interresting because on the way to the ruin there was high-tide and at the way back to Park Cottage the tide was ebbing.

When we came back, we had lunch and then we drove to Whithorn to see the harbour. Then we drove to Isle of Whithorn to see this harbour and St.Ninian’s chapel. Then we drove back to Garlieston.
