Where's Weems?

The McArthur's have once again succumbed to the lure of the Highlands, the adventure of walking in the foot steps of their ancestors, and the flavor of the worlds finest salmon. This is a record my parent's travels in Scotland and Ireland AS SEEN FROM THEIR BORED SON ON THE INTERNET.

Loch Awe

I recieved a phone call from the intrepid travellers and I called them right back with Skype to save phone costs. At that time, they had been to Loch Awe which is where McArthur ancestry is rooted. During the day, Dad went trolling with a guide and caught a 10 lb. Northern Pike. I didnt realize they had those things up there.

Both Mom and Dad explored an island in Loch Awe which contains the ruins of Innis Chonnel Castle, a castle which was in The McArthur Clan for a period of time. Strickly speaking, the castle was in the hands of the clan Campbell, but a McArthur was the captain of the castle in its earliest history.
