We left the lovely bed and breakfast that Andy arranged for us and spent some time exploring the countryside before leaving beautiful Scotland. Rolling green hills covered with sprays of wildflowers, pretty wooden fences, old stone bridges… I love how after nearly 20 years of marriage Andy automatically knows when to drive really slowly by a winding stream or charming cottage without me even having to ask so I can snap a picture. And occasionally he knows when to pull over altogether so that I can capture an image he knows I would like. This has been so fun. :)
Here’s the difference between Andy and I when it comes to pictures though… Mia and I hopped out at this picturesque setting along the highway. When we got back into the car Andy asked to see the picture. He looked at this darling photo of Mia, that I thought he’d be so impressed with it because I literally had 5 seconds to compose my shot for crying out loud… :)
“So where’s the picture of the bridge?”
“It’s right there, behind Mia”
“That’s a picture of Mia, not a bridge.”
Tomorrow we will fly to Ireland where we will tour Cork, Blarney, Kilarney and then up to Shannon before we head back to the US. We are so excited!
