The Fife Arms in Braemar

I absolutely do NOT want to travel, but this hotel could possibly coax me out of my "sta-cation" mindset. Only if I could stay in each room while there!

In the late 70's, I lived in Scotland with my parents between schools. If memory serves, mom, my dad and me went to a big, fancy company dinner at the THE FIFE ARMS a long time ago. I remember being amazed when we were met by a man playing bag pipes at the entrance, Mom and Dad had worn their kilts. It was all very grand. Those were fun times, sometimes filled with drunken episodes with my dad, parents fighting but also some great memories. Life is never simple.

It is days like today that I really miss mom. To reminisce and check the accuracy of my memory and talk.
