SCOTLAND: Holyrood


While in Edinburgh we wished to tour Holyrood Palace, the Edinburgh home of the Queen. Several times we were told that it could not happen because "Charles is there with that woman." Or, it was said that the Prince was there with "That woman."
As it turned out he married her. She now has a name. She is Camilla. Yet,we wonder if those folks in Scotland ever have given her her real name.
By the way, after a day "of cleaning up" they opened the palace for tours. It is really the Palace at Holyrood House. Mary Queen of Scots lived there. Nice digs.
