Well, today is our last day here :(. Today we met our tour bus at 9 am; we had the same bus driver, Gus. We had three stops scheduled, the first was Dunfirmline Abbey. This is the chapel which is the final resting place of Robert the Bruce. When we arrived we walked around the church, and I noticed the tombstones, people died at such young ages!
