We googled our hotel to look for the phone number and the first result was "Scotland's Most Haunted Castles." This was the beginning of our Scotland Ghost Adventure.
This is us standing in front of our castle. At 3 AM the night before, we heard a small ghost child yelling. Ginny and I were quite scared, and asked our friend Chris to protect us.
Chris said , "It's either in the room or outside, go to sleep."

To get to the Ghost Castle we rented a car. Ginny was the most experienced with a stick shift, having spent one afternoon learning stick in highschool. Her bravery brought us through the round-aboots to safety. Chris was the navigator. And I was the silent supporter.
This is Chris and Ginny checking under the hood of the car because there was a constant fear that some intense damage was happening, and that they were hearing "noises." They didn't know I took the photo at the time, because it was not a care-free moment. But I think they can laugh about it now.

Ladies and Gentleman, we made Scottish Wedding Friends, and they taught us how to play the bagpipes. It was awesome! You have to blow a LOT of wind, and the secret is you push down on the bag (the bag made of LAMB LIVER) while you blow. These bag pipes belonged to this Scottish man's Great Great Grandfather!
Chris trying the traditional, heart healthy, Scottish dish of porridge. He was not brave enough to try Hagis.
The Secret Garden...
Freaky Underground City Tour. Chris successfully made both Ginny and I yelp from fear while underground here.

Oh, hello, welcome to my castle.
On top of a big hill during our walking ghost tour. We were prepared to be really scared, but we weren't. We did get to see a lot of great views though.
In front of "The Shame of Scotland." The acropolis they never finished.
We couldn't help ourselves...
