We returned there, in 2002, for more.damloch3t.jpg For these pictures, click thumbnail pic.
We returned again, twice, in 2003, and loved it so much that we decided to move here upon my retirement from paid work in December 2003. So the October 2003 holiday was quite exciting! There wasn't a lot that answered our requirements, but one did, and we went for it. For more on that, see my personal site.
However, for the images of the times we Galloway/Gall05/dgcoast1t.jpg spent then and subsequently, see this link...
