Pack up the car and prep for checkout. Get boys dressed, they eat breakfast outside in the backyard, everyone gets in the car, and we drive and stop in Cheltenham then continue driving. We finally arrive in Preston to see the Preston England temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It is beautiful! Quiet and peaceful. Truly amazing flowers blooming on the temple grounds and the grass was incredibly green like a golf course! The steeple on the temple was tall and white and the glass windows so shiny and pretty. We loved walking around in the evening sunshine with our boys. One of our favorite parts of the trip! Continue our drive to Scotland. The boys watch a movie while C and V enjoy the sunset over the green hills as we enter Scotland. Finally as it gets dark the kids are all asleep in the back seat and we arrive in Edinburgh. So happy to be here! Drive to our Airbnb on cobblestone streets. Our Airbnb garage is basically a large barn door! We bring the sleepy kids inside and put them to bed. Unload the car and we are off to sleep!
