Balmoral

Balmoral is the Royal Residence in Scotland.  The Queen lives here during August and September.
We were only allowed to see one room inside the castle itself - the ballroom (but no photos allowed).  Exploring the extensive grounds, stables and gardens kept us occupied for most of the day.  We even enjoyed a picnic lunch on site.
We'll never forget the beautiful scenery at this Highland Estate.  We will also never forget the sickening narrow, twisty, mountainous hour-long roadtrip to get here... Surely the Queen gets a helicopter lift!
