Lovely video. I grew up about half a mile from Bothwell Castle where we used to play as children. I also used to live on the Rosneath Peninsula where your first B&B was. I now live up at the head of Loch Long about 10 miles further up the road from where the aircraft carrier was. I recently took my son for a break in Fort William where we also went to Mallaig (you pronounce the ‘a’ as in America) and took the Gondola up Aonach Mor - your kids would have loved that. I’ve been to Sky many times. Uig is pronounced ‘oo-igg’. The ‘a’ in Jacobite is also pronounced as in the word ‘America’. I have to say that Aberdeen is not one of my favourite places but you were spoiled by our beautiful West Coast scenery before you went there 😂 Edinburgh is pronounced ‘Edin-burrah’. I am glad that you enjoyed your holiday. Haste ye back. You might find some inspiration for things to do and places to see here in Argyll in a few of my own videos (they’re not nearly as well made as yours). 😊
😁 I think we pronounced it both ways in the video! Absolutely loved the stadium visit. And saw that we have an American on the team... except just he scored an own-goal today :-(
My Cousin use to play for Celtic , out of all the football teams in Scotland you could have picked,Fate destiny whatever you call it guided you to make the rite choice 🍀
Americans crack me up with their castle obsession. Went to the dentist this morning where I parked in front of ancient castle ruins in my town where Mary Queen of Scots spent a summer in the 1500s and I don’t even give it a second glance. I guess when you grow up here and they’re everywhere, you don’t even take notice of them.
Aberdeen is a city not a town 3rd biggest city in Scotland, clues in the name the granite city or silver city because of the granite buildings and 70% of the granite in London comes from Aberdeen so technically London is Scottish
Nothing bad meant. Just saying. I would not have been that comfortable being that close. I'm scottish from troon a few miles down the coast. I'm a truck driver and have delivered to the naval base at faslane and even glen mallan dock where u seen the carrier. I was delivering items for the construction of the Dock. However coulport I've never been in and not sure I want to either lol. Hope you enjoyed ur stay and hope u visit again. Ayrshire btw is always overlooked. Troon beach for instance is great in summer when we do get nice summers. Take care
Your kids are great, filled with boundless energy 😊

Glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for the pronunciation tips. Like our Iceland video, we miss-pronounced many locations in Scotland. 😅
I loved this! I am so glad you were able to take this trip AND share it with us! Love you guys!
Thank you! :-)
This was amazing! We loved it!!!
Until thirty five years ago you would have been able to see US Navy ships from Kilcreggan. FYI Celtic is pronounced Seltic not Keltic.
I like this video, keep it up ❤
Glad you enjoyed Scotland and visited Paradise and it's pronounced SellTic not keltic

I used to live in Glasgow, and would often fish in Loch Long, Just a few miles north of that Jetty. beautiful countryside, but awfully narrow road.

Absolutely. We don't have castles here in Chicagoland. Just tall buildings. I love that everything is 400+ years older in Scotland. What a treasure.
Love that you saw the famous Glasgow Celtic the most famous and best club in all of Scotland
The history of Celtic was incredible. Got chills in the dressing room and walking out into the stadium.

So cool!!
U were staying about a mile and a half feom coulport. U would have seen it at the roundabout. Where Britain keeps its nuclear weapons
While driving around the area we did go past some serious military bases. Very impressive.

Dumbarton is pronounced Dum - Bar- Ton
Rather than Dumbatn
My apologies. 🙂 Loved that castle.
Don't worry about the pronunciation. I'm sure we Scots mangle plenty of place names when abroad. @@brentstutzman
