The Palace of Holyroodhouse

I dropped by the Queen's official residence in Scotland, The Palace of Holyroodhouse, or simply Holyrude Palace (but she just calls it home). While there, the Queen and I toured the rooms and the grounds then had tea. We talked for hours and really got to know each other. Elizabeth (or Liz, as I like to call her) puts up walls to protect herself, but underneath it all she is really sweet. She confided in me her dream that Harry settle down with a good girl like myself, not me specifically because I'm taken, which I had to remind her of repeatedly--a pushy old codger she is!

Of course she invited me to stay for dinner, but I had to meet Anthony and we already had plans to climb Arthur's Seat so I Had to reschedule.

 

I didnt take pictures of inside the palace because I needed to respect Liz's privacy, but I was able to take a few shots of the grounds as well as the old Abbey remains.

Next week we'll be heading to London and at the Queen insistence will be staying at Buckingham Palace so let me know if you'll be in the area and wish to come visit us while there!

Oh and here is a picture of Liz and I. You can really see the bond we share in this picture.
