Our last day in Stirling was Wednesday. We had a bit of time before getting on the train for Mallaig so we decided to do some shopping and som sightseeing. First up was a shop just across the way from the train station. Here I found the wee monster tshirt for Monster. I also found a lovely cashmere scarf in a muted anceint MacDonald Tartan.
Next we took acab up to the Wallace Monument We arrived just in time to have a history lesson from one of Wallace’s soldiers.
The monument itself is a tower. To see all there is to see requires climbing the stone steps …over 20 of them. I made it to the third level and called it quits. It was just too much for my knees. Jim went the rest of the way up and got pictures.
