Tantallon Castle

I went to Tantallon Castle for the first time today. It's a long way up the stairs to the upper ramparts but thankfully there were some places to rest and take in the wonderful views over the Firth of Forth ... epic!


"From scenes like these, old Scotia's grandeur springs 
That makes her lov'd at home, rever'd abroad: 
Princes and lords are but the breath of kings, 
'An honest man's the noblest work of God.'"

(Robert Burns - from A Cotters Saturday Night)
