Normal early summer day. I was last there about 50 years ago. Still quite recognisable.
Glad it provoked memories!
Great video...looking forward to visiting next month

Good video. Abbé worth a summer re-shoot though. See it at its best etc.
We have had real trouble this summer scheduling video shoots, the weather has been awful!

Great video, thank you so much for sharing. Killin is a special place, spent many hours by the Falls of Dochart
Thank you for your kind comments. I am glad you enjoyed it.
Can you do dollar
I was in Dollar when I filmed the Clackmannan Tower Trail but couldn’t get access into Castle Campbell because it had been closed off for repairs. I will return and do both in the near future.
É muito lindo. Onde será que Dan vivia?
Thank you.
Hello, a very nice tour and the landscape was great. A subscription for you. Best regards 😊👍🏻
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
It’s so beautiful. Last year we gifted our daughter and son-in-law a trip. They chose Scotland.
A fair few improvements since I left in the 60s - a special place in my heart!!
Glad you enjoyed it. I have a drive through of Dundee on the channel as well.

Thanks for your lovely comment.
Thank you for sharing 😊 loved this We were lucky enough to visit Scone Palace in November ❤🏴 Hope you're having a good week Morgs Jo and Boo 🐕 ❤
Great story.
The stolen Stone of Scone was recovered from Westminster Abby on Christmas Day 1950 ! On the Dead Sea Scroll's solar calendar, after the Vernal Equinox starting the next Biblical Year, it was placed on the altar in the ruins of Arbroath Abbey on the 11th April 1951. With a 21st March Vernal Equinox that year, this means that the Stone of Scone was placed on the altar of Arbroath Abby on the last seventh day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread: a Holy High Day ! So in the same BIBLICAL year: • 1951 was 3400 years and the 68th Jubilee after the Exodus from Egypt ! (Working with a 4BC birth of Christ) • Before the next Vernal Equinox King George VI died on the 6th of February 1951. • Queen Elizabeth II immediately ascended the throne - although only later coronated. i.e. The Stone of Scone was recovered in the Jubilee 7x7 49th year of 1950, and later placed on the High Altar of Arbroath Abby on the seventh day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread - in the Jubilee 50th year of 1951 ! The Declaration of Scottish Independence drafted at Arbroath Abby and dated the 6th April 1320, was also in the midst of the Feast of Unleavened Bread: The vernal equinox was the 20th March that year and the 7th April was the 4th day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread that year: the day of Christ’s resurrection on the Biblical annual calendar. So 631 years later (6+3+1=10), on the last 7th Day of Unleavened Bread, being a High Day, the Stone of Scone was placed on the High Alter in the ruins of that very same Arbroath Abby, wrapped in the “Saltire” or “Saint Andrews Cross” - the national flag of Scotland. Saint Andrew was the brother of Peter, and also an apostle and disciple of Christ. In the 1320 “Declaration of Arbroath” the Scott’s claimed to be Israelites who migrated from Egypt to Spain to Ireland and then to Scotland ! Legend has it that the Stone of Scone would sometimes groan when a king was crowned on it. It is now apparent that the Stone of Scone had a flaw in it. It had a faint fracture that could be the cause of the noise when some weightier kings were crowned sitting on it: the fracture gradually progressed further and further under the weight and hence the “groans”. When it was removed from beneath the coronation throne in Westminster Abby on Christmas Day 1950, it finally broke into two pieces in the process. The smaller piece was secretly returned to Scotland almost immediately and the larger piece was returned sometime later. Once re-assembled and re-enforced into the semblance of one stone, it was placed on the alter as described above. When it was later back in Westminster Abby, Queen Elisabeth II was coronated on a broken Stone of Scone - what is the significance and implication of that as we see history unfold ???. , ,
When researching the history of the stone on the Internet you can loose days following different threads! Amazing story right enough.
Gosh, i would be a rich man if i had a £1.00 for every time i walked these streets. ❤❤
I’ve always loved a trip to the ‘Ferry’!
Wonderful video... Thanks and keep it up
Thank you, it’s a lovely place.
Following my ancestors, this is one place I am going to visit. Thank you for sharing.
Fantastic little town with a great community.
great video. Thank you. I'm no history buff, so when reading the 'scone of stone' in one of Terry Pratchetts discworld books, i didn't realise the significance. Thank you! you both together made a life a bit more enjoyable. Appreciated.
Thank you for your kind comments. Glad you enjoyed it.
1820 on 25/4/23 I was born in the house in Dec.1948 as it was used as a war hospital . We lived in a wee but and ben at Marlee. Where the quary is now
Glad you enjoyed the video
Great wee video.
Thanks. It is really difficult to make a video about a stone you are not allowed to video!
@@explorescotland Yeah, at least you got to film the replica.
I don't know when I will ever be able to visit Scotland, so I am enjoying this drive through. I love unique beautiful homes like this, full of amazing history. Great narration and perfect soundtrack. L13 and cheers from Canada.
Thank you for your kind comments. On the home page there is a drive through playlist that you might also enjoy. I hope you do get to Scotland one day!
Thanks for sharing We were lucky enough to visit Aberfeldy in 2021. Hope you are well and had a good weekend Morgs Jo and Boo 🐕 ❤

Good video
Lovely wee town
A hidden gem!
Great video, brilliant city! Love Dundee!
Me too. It is a very underrated place! Thank you for your kind comment.
Thank you for your beautiful videos! Do you mind if I use them to show Scotland to my students?
Thank you for your kind comments. Please show them to your students. Unfortunately, I cannot allow downloads.
Loved it my bo,friend is a decendant of flora mcdonald
Wow!
I’ve always loved Crieff, one of the prettiest towns in Scotland. My memories of the Crieff Hydro go way back to the early 60’s. The first time was with Mum and Dad, as a baby of 10 months old in 1954 - 70 years ago!❤
There’s certainly been some changes to the hotel over the years. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Thanks for showing Perth my great great grandmother lived there and sadly my beauiful mother pasted away last year and only made it to Glasgow I would of loved to show her this but I think she had an idear it was like this a lovely town
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Another great video Thanks so much for sharing So much history here, we've never visited but we're going to add it to our must visit list 😊❤🏴 Hope you're having a good weekend
Thanks again for your kind comments.
What a delightful wee town! It's a shame the main road by-passes so much of it - I have been along there countless times both in my father's cars and by bus as an adult - not to say also the train; yet never got out to explore. Thanks for inspiring me to attempt to do so in future!
As you can see from the video you couldn’t get much in the way of transport or haulage through the Main Street! I suspect the name of ‘Back Dykes’ for what is now the main thoroughfare, was once just a small lane around the northern part of the village.
Lovely place, the council did not improve the square though.
I quite like things just to stay the way they are!
I love this town ❤
Really enjoyed your video.. thank you
Thank you for your kind comment.
Thanks for sharing A fabulous video, with so much information 😊 Another place to add to our must visit list next time we are visiting Perthshire ❤️🏴 Have a great week 😊

This American was in Pitlochry and Moulin for a visit a couple of times in the 90s and enjoyed both a great deal.
I do intend to do some more video of Pitlochry in the future. A simple drive through can never capture everything.
