Scotland travel: Blackness Castle. Used as an armory and a prison, it must have been attacked from the sea only at high tide, as these pleasure boats stuck in the bog demonstrate. Blackness Castle didn't look like much from the outside, and was very stark in it's functionality on the inside. This Castle is about an hour drive from where we stayed at Dalhousie Castle, and about two hours from Culzean Castle. Real People having Real Fun!
