Any Interest in Jumping the Pond? Class Trip to Great Britain!

Hey Kids!

Do you want to travel to Great Britain? If so, shoot me an email - I'm trying to poll interest for a trip that would take place either this summer or next summer, so let me know if you're interested. If at least 12 students are interested, I'll call a representative and get some price quotes. The trip would hopefully last 10 to 14 days and would cover England, Scotland, and Ireland. Let me know!

Glamis Castle

Hey kids -

Here's a picture of Glamis Castle. As you know, Macbeth was Thane of Glamis however in the play, his castle is not Glamis Castle but instead is referred to as the castle at Dunsinane. Since there is no longer a castle at Dunsinane, I thought this picture would suffice for you to get an idea of the play's setting.

Remember - in the play, he just became the Thane of Cawdor, therefore he wouldn't live in Cawdor Castle... although there is one!

Also, although Inverness is referenced throughout the play, his castle would not have been the castle at Inverness. Inverness also refers to the area surrounding the city itself.
