Laura and Florence continue talking about our visit to Scotland (see
Part 1 and
Part 2): On Tuesday of May half term we visited the Scottish Deer Centre in Fife where
we didn't just see lots of varieties of deer, but also otters, wildcats, a falconry display, wolves, lynx and ELK which were enormous!

| Reindeer resting - they didn't look ready to pull a sleigh! |
 |
| A very large Elk - it would take about 10 Sasha's and Gregor's standing on top of each other to get onto his back |
 |
| Watching the Otters - they were great fun |
 |
| Two otters |
 |
| The large tame owl decided to sit on our table in the falconry display |
 |
| He was very impressive but also quite naughty, he didn't always come back when called |
 |
| A magnificent falcon |
 |
| The lovely kestrel |
 |
| Laura does the tree top walk (above the Elk) - we didn't see any Red Squirrels unfortunately |
On Wednesday morning, just before we left the Kingdom of Fife, we met Archbishop Desmond Tutu and a group of African dolls which live at the house where we stayed.

On Wednesday morning we travelled to Edinburgh. That afternoon it rained very hard in the city, so we stayed indoors while the big people went outside and got wet (silly people).

In fact they didn't take us out for the next two days which were not rainy, even when they visited the
Museum of Childhood which was filled with lovely dolls and toys (many more than those at Kellie Castle). Apparently they told us there weren't any Sasha dolls in the museum and DollMum says she will blog about this separately as she took lots of photos. But we are disappointed they didn't take us to visit all those dolly cousins (who were almost all stuck in glass cases). Don't worry, we did get an outing in Edinburgh and will tell you all about that soon.
