Flag and Flowers

This is picture 21 of 30 from my Summer 2011 trip home to Scotland. I don’t remember exactly where we were when I snapped this picture. What I know is that for me – this is a Scottish as it gets.

Dumrfies, New Zealand

This is picture 20 of 30 from my Summer 2011 trip home to Scotland. My Aunt Avril – who was my mother’s older sister – left Dumrfies for New Zealand on the day before I was born. My mom thought of her as we passed by the train station.
