We left northern Scotland on October 15 at around 11:00am. We took the train back to Perth which gave us a chance to see the beautiful Scottish countryside. We arrived back in Perth at around 4:30pm just in time for dinner and then later bed. The next day Hendry and Lindzee took us to Dundee and we went to Sensations which is a hands on science centre. After lunch we went to the R.R.S Discovery Centre which is a museum dedicated to Scotland's voyage to the Antarctic in 1901 captined by Robert Falcon Scott. The next day Hendry and Lindzee's son David and his wife Wendy took us to Edinburgh to the Edinburgh Castle, it was definetly one of the coolest castles we went to. After lunch at Decons Brody Tavern we wandered around the Royal Mile and Princes Street. The next day David took Mitchell, Ray, and I to Dundee to a huge indoor swimming pool with a water slide that had a 8 foot drop into 15 meters of water. That night we had fish 'n' chips for dinner at David and Wendy's house. The last full day in Perth we tour the potato feilds and factory that the Lindsay family owns. We also went to Hermatige Park and walked through the woods and saw the water falls. That night the whole lot of us went out for dinner at Paco's restaurant it was a very memorable meal.
