St. Andrews

This is a picture of the ruins of St. Andrew’s cathedral. I’ve been here several times over the last five years, and it happens to be one of my favorite spots in the UK.

Why is it one of my favorite spots, you ask? Well, it just so happens that not only is it a beautiful ruin in a lovely town, but also one of the first places in Scotland I visited way back in December 2002. Oh, and did I mention this is where Paul proposed and I accepted?

St. Andrews Cathedral

St. Andrews is located on Scotland’s east coast in the Kingdom of Fife. I asked Paul innocently enough one time why he wasn’t from the Kingdom of Tay then, and he told me to stop picking and making fun of him. I just don’t understand why he always thinks I’m making fun of him.

In all seriousness, though, St. Andrews is a wonderful place to see if you’re making a trip to Scotland. It’s a lovely town, with a beautiful ruin right next to the sea. I just hope your weather is as good as ours was when I took this photo.

I should also point out that he didn’t propose to me in a cemetery. The actual deed was done to the right of this photo, nearer the cloister of the ruins.

    Love the picture and your romantic story.

    I live in ‘the Kingdom’ and St Andrews is one of my favourite place too. In fact Iove the Kingdom of Fife so much I’m making a wee website about it.
