It took over 30 years for TheKeriLumm to visit her family's heritage at Fife Keith in Scotland. It was worth the wait.
Sometimes a dream takes over 30 years to come true and still lives up to your every expectation.
I remember being in awe of that. Scotland felt like a million miles away from my small town in Iowa. Sadly, we did not go because we didn’t have money for an international trip. To be honest, at that point in my life I don’t think I had met a single person who had gone overseas voluntarily. My grandfathers did, but that trip was free and World War II was, you know, war.at all, you probably know I have covered the time-traveling Scottish romance since it began.
The visit began at Fife Arms in Braemar. This hotel is a building Queen Victoria used to stay in herself. It is near to Balmoral and has all the luxury you could hope for in your stay. Their Ghillie service was beyond helpful. In fact, I chose to stay in this hotel because they were the most responsive about tours and other help.
If you have Scottish heritage I highly recommend going to visit the town that your family hails from, or at least a town that shares your surname. Getting a glimpse into your family history is good for the soul, and brings you closer to your heritage.
