Time again for some Catmobile fun!

"The new BFF's Sophie and Chels are taking good care of the babies (while showing them how to shop!). We'll be back in the States on Friday for Angel's b'day party ..."

(Shhhhh!!!! We're shopping for Angel's birthday!! Don't ruin the surprise!!)

[Killearn Kitties]

I understand that our kitties decided to do the Royal Mile in an unusual way today - from Holyrood at the bottom all the way up to the castle at the top - well they are cats. They shopped all the way! When I asked what they bought, I was told "don't ask!"

Apparently Angel, Chip and Chuck were diverted into the Museum of Childhood by Sophie and Chels while the rest of the kitties shopped for birthday presents for Friday's big party.

Then they went round a couple of art galleries on their way down to Princes Street Gardens. Groucho wanted to see the Floral Clock that his meowmie had told him about, so they had arranged for caterers from a local delicatessen to serve a fabulous picnic in the gardens. Are these kitties good to themselves or what???

I understand that after suitably refreshing themselves, they headed back up to the Castle esplanade for tonight's tattoo. I told Jessica to make sure little Chip and Chuck were well back and couldn't run onto the parade ground for ... any reason.

Goodness knows what they have in store for tomorrow.

Sounds like my kids are having a grand time. I thank all the bigger kits for watching after them.

Winnie, Chester, Grandma and I are busy getting ready for the party. Chester has been having fun with the helium balloons. You should hear how funny he sounds.

We will have lots of goodies and treats and fun. The kits are more than welcome to spend the weekend or however long they want to stay. My kits can show them our fort. I think our heat wave is to break Friday so it won't be so awfully hot for an outdoor outing should they want to see it.

Got a message from Groucho a short while ago. He said Edinburgh Castle is awesome! The kitties took a guided tour and they agreed the big hall would be the purrfect place for one of their parties. The guide let them try on the armor and they had a blast pretending to be knights. The climb up to one of the turrets was a workout but he said the view was well worth the effort. A few of them went up Walter Scott's Monument and were very impressed with the size of Prince's Park. The kitties relaxed by the floral clock and enjoyed a traditional Scottish feast, the haggis was a huge hit! After all their walking and climbing they were happy to have time for a nap by the floral clock before going to the Tattoo.

Several kitties found kitty collars with their clan tartan at one of the tartan shops along the Royal Mile. Sydney, Ming, and Bob have decided to take bagpipe lessons! All the kitties were surprised to learn that in Scotland only the men wear kilts. Groucho said the Killearn lassies are excellent tour guides and tomorrow they all will take a ride on a double decker bus for a tour of Edinburgh.

From the Princess:

The tartan collars are sooooo cute - Sophie and I got ours to match except mine has rhinestones and hers has pearls.
Today we're going to visit Nessie at Loch Ness (the Killearn kitties swear they know her) and have a sunset dinner cruise around the lake. I heard something about creamed herring.....
Tell MOFF the boys are being sorta good....

Oh, Oh, Should I be worried? Maybe I should check and see what sort of damage my insurance covers in other countries!

Fister says, if everyone are going to the festival in Scotland, he simply has to be there! He was so envious last year when he heard me talk about how beautiful Scotland is, and he would really like to meet his kitty friends again. So I booked him a flight and he already got his boarding pass. I hope someone will meet him and show him the way.
