Pony Trekking!
First thing this morning we made breakfast and went to our new house. We have four rooms; A kitchen, bathroom, living room, and master bedroom. Emily and I are sleeping on the pull out couch. Then we got on the bus with out Dad and went to the pony trekking place. We went to a small town called Drumnadrochit,it is right by Loch Ness. We walked to the barns and watched the farrier, until our ponies were ready. Mine was a dappled grey pony named Fergus. Emily's was a brown pony called Fidget and Mom's was another grey horse called Kelly. Then we went on a two hour trek, up the hills and around Loch Ness. We passed a castle called Urquhart, and tried to guess it's age, Emily was closest. It was built in the 6th century, and we had a beautiful view on the hill from horseback.

How fun! And what great scenery to look at while you're riding! So how old was that castle? Are you reading historical fiction about Scotland while you're there?
Looks like Heaven to me
