The Bruce Festival (History Walk)

Tonight we went down to Dunfermline Abbey for the Historical Walk of Robert the Bruce. This weekend is the Bruce Festival and we kicked things off by taking a nighttime walk with key figures from Scotland's independence period of the 14th century. It was a lot of fun and we learned a lot about the history of Scotland, Fife, and Dunfermline.

                                                                 Abbot House

                                                              Dunfermline Abbey
                                                           Dunfermline Abbey
                                                    Robert the Bruce and Jimmy Douglass
                                            "none shall pass" (they really said that)
                    Robert the Bruce is about to murder someone (Ainsley says is John "something")
We can't remember who she was either. Maybe we didn't learn as much as I thought. We'll go back this weekend and figure it all out. I know she was angry though.
