We’ve made it to Scotland! A wonderful fast train ride to Glasgow then a gorgeous train ride through loch’s and mountains to Oban.

We are a family who caught the travel bug early..... and now we often have wonderlust dreams that take us all over the globe. We LOVE exploring new places, discovering new food and culture, meeting interesting people and living like locals, for a short time at least...... We love where we live, but we also love exploring the world as well. Please join us on our journey of discovery.....

We went to the Cheese Bar at Seven Dials for lunch, which is like a sushi train, but for cheese! It was a lot of fun and the cheeses were delicious. Not related to the cheese bar, we both came down sick the next day. S was sick with a cold (not covid thankfully), and N had an over exposure to xylitol (if you want to know what that is like, read the 1 star reviews for sugar free gummy bears on Amazon) which resulted in the worst gastro symptoms of her life. Skye stuck by her and wouldn’t move. We are on the mend a few days later (thankfully there is a pharmacy near where we are staying) and hoping to be back to doing fun stuff soon.
We loved reading Harry Potter to our kids when they were growing up - waiting for each book to come out and then reading it to them, or as they got older waiting for them to read it themselves so that we could read the books ourselves. We’ve enjoyed the movies as well, so visiting the Harry Potter Studio tour was high on our list of things to do in London. We had a great time, although it was a very long day and we were all exhausted by the end of it.
