VISITING ARGYLL & BUTE, SCOTLAND ◆ UK TRAVEL VLOG ◆ Castle Stalker + 1st Time Shopping At Morrison's

[Filmed November 7, 2020]
In my opinion, this vlog is when we started tiptoeing our way into becoming (temporary) Highlanders.
Today, you’ll watch us start to settle into our new life and routines for our month-long stay in the Scottish Highlands.
Specifically, we explore the northern part of the nearby Argyll and Bute council, where we visit the Old Inn for tea in Appin, followed by gawking at the BEAUTIFUL Castle Stalker across the loch.
Then, we take our first trip to the UK supermarket of Morrison’s! It was probably the closest grocery store that we visited that reminded us of shopping at Kroger/Mariano’s.
Hope you enjoy following along!
Cheers, and happy travels!

Hey Eliz and Derek, we too had a wonderful time in Argyll and Bute not too long ago. Our cousin Ken and Jane gave us the Grand Tour. We drove from Oxford, England. to Edinburgh and on to
Argyll. The Scots are so friendly and boy they have a story to tell. Hope you had a good time too. Sending you lots of love.💖💖💖 Harriet and Jim. Richmond. Va.

[@MeansToTravel]

That’s so great that your cousins were able to show you around! What a special travel memory! Do you recall which towns or cities you visited? We have an Oban vlog coming up later in our Scotland series 😀

I loved this so much, your video was so informative and beautiful

[@MeansToTravel]

So glad you enjoyed watching! Thanks so much!

Morrisons actually bought over the old Safeways brand that was in the UK , so your reference was on point!
I'm heading over that way this weekend and have a table booked for the Old Inn.

[@MeansToTravel]

Oh no way! So our hunch was spot on, haha! Thanks Stevie, and we hope you enjoyed the Old Inn!

[@etherdog]

We love to check out grocery stores in other countries, too!

[@MeansToTravel]

Yes! Feels like having a true cultural experience on each trip! 😀
