After exploring and extending the family tree, what started as a “Wouldn’t it be nice to…” moment quickly became a booking on a flight to the UK to follow the ancestral trail. Finding ancestors in the Scottish highlands from before the time of Bonnie Prince Charlie and Culloden initiated a planned trip to Nairn near Inverness, with a fair bit of exploration on the way north from our starting point of London and again on the return trip.

So in just over 12 weeks time we will be UK bound with Emirates, leaving Perth, Western Australia on the 24th September and arriving in London on the 25th with a quick half-way stop in Dubai.
