Brackin Falls and Doone Castle, Scotland

May 24, 2015

Since the weather wasn't always the best, we tried to jam-pack the days we could get out. First stop: Brackin Falls. We packed a lunch, hopped in the car, and headed for a day of hiking and adventure. Once at the falls, we enjoyed our picnic and hiked our way over. The kids loved climbing the rocks around the falls. We probably could have spent the whole afternoon there, but we wanted to get to the castle.


As we headed to the castle, the weather turned a bit and got colder and drizzled. We didn't let that stop. We kept our sites on seeing our first Scottish Castle. When we arrived, we learned that the castle was host to many movies and TV shows, mainly Monty Python and Outlanders. Sean was super excited about this. The walking tour was excellent. Like a scavenger hunt, the kids loved finding the numbered locations around the castle. It even included snippets from the movie, which went over the kids' heads.
