Okay just saw the spelling but you did pronounce it with the p
@OldHouseOnTheCorner 13 күн бұрын
@scottwhite2043 the name is derived from Scots Gaelic "Caimbeul" which has no "p".
@scottwhite2043 13 күн бұрын
If I heard you pronounce your last name in the beginning of video. I didn't hear you say the "p". When was the p add or has it always been in the spelling and just not pronounced
@OldHouseOnTheCorner 13 күн бұрын
@scottwhite2043 the "p" was added hundreds of years ago and is an English spelling. The original spelling and pronunciation is without the "p" and sounds more like CAM-BULL.

We did your route 30 yrs ago, brought my tent, he proposed, married in Banff, justice of the peace then the guy played 'soccer', hubby 'football' nut was thrilled! Scotland lost yest I heard but we live in Pointe-Claire and there's a street called Urquhart near me, google pic of our community center Stewart Hall! Josée, I loved seeing French writting on castles as I didn't know they'd banded together!
@OldHouseOnTheCorner Ай бұрын
We've actually been to Banff, Alberta but didn't make it to Banff, Scotland. We did, however, drive through Calgary, Scotland on our way to Calgary Bay, Scotland on the island of Mull (also in an upcoming video) so we can say we've been to Calgary, Alberta and Calgary, Scotland. Interesting that you have an Urquhart street. Yes, the Scottish and French banded together a bit in the past so there's an intertwined history there. Thanks for watching and we hope you'll subscribe and stick around for more videos from our trip! We made a loop around the middle of Scotland and there's plenty more to come!

Yes, the mist hanging around the castle and low over the loch when we first arrived was an iconic look. It made quite the view. We enjoyed the AirBnB in Inverness too. Only one block up from the river, close to the Infirmary Bridge. That was a very lovely walk up past the Ness Bridge to the Grieg Street Bridge and back that evening.
