Callander!

Okay so I am going to combine Sunday and Monday in this post as I don't really have any pictures from Sunday. Sunday we got up and went to church in Alloa. I have never been to a ward before when the announce by name the person who is visiting. So when that happened I was a little taken aback. Of course I had met the Bishop the day before as he had brought Rob to the airport to pick me up. Rachel was unable to come to the airport as she was teaching piano. So her husband came and got me. After church we came home and made some food. Then Rachel and I watched the Saratov Approach as Rach hadn't seen it yet.

Monday I had the opportunity to go to the city that my ancestors are from. The city is Callendar (but pronounced Calendar). It truly was one of my favorite places that I went. While there we ate some lunch, which I got fish n chips. (you can't go to Scotland without having fish n chips)

                                                               
                                               cemetery that I believe my ancestors are burried in

                                                                 
                                                                     Callander, Scotland

The photos of the are taken in the cemetery that I believe my ancestors are burried in. (when I looked them up online it said this one) But I could hardly read most of the names on the graves as they are so weathered.
