Saturday: Day 2 - Balmoral plus .....

We needed to see Balmoral before they close for the season on 1st August and get the hoovers and dusters out in readiness for HM Holiday Guest!

On the approach to the gates of Balmoral.  If this guy built the bridge, I'm more than happy to walk across it!

The Gang - minus the photographer

The River Dee from Brunel's Bridge



Just in case you wanted/needed a refresher!  Click on the photo enlarge it!
The Queen's uniform is on the right
















Spot the mistake - thought HMQ had better English grammar than that!




Nice to see that even the professionals can't get all the animals to face the camera and all the people to avoid blinking!

Some of the dogs have clearly had enough!



The portions weren't large and it was a bit school dinner-like but I daren't put a bad review on TripAdvisor in case I end up in the Tower!












A kind passer-by took photos of the whole group




Lovely footstool at the end of the bed!




Now  then, HMQ - can we get this state visit sorted?!  Quite fancy a night or two here!














Vegetables - by royal appointment


The Old Boar!

No E II R - as it's on a royal estate?

£45 for a dog coat!!

The Royal Entrance

Brunel's Bridge - a public highway

Entrance to Crathie Church - it's right opposite
