    Did they inspire you to write medieval or gothic romance? They would me.

  4. I love England, Ireland, and Scotland. I miss it terribly. (Went to school there, Ahmed's family is there, and some of mine, as well.)
    So glad you enjoyed it!

    Edinburgh Castle is one of my favorites. It's built on top of an extinct volcano. Could you imagine trying to attack the place?

    Amother of my favorites is Urquhart on the coast of Loch Ness. Spooky, especially when there's mist.

  8. My kids enjoyed viewing the castles. Anything linked to Harry Potter has top marks. LOL

    Me? Your pictures are beautiful, crisp and capture the romance what we readers look for.

    Thumbs-up!
