Spotlight on Moclin Castle

Spotlight on Moclin

When we sit in the front room of our house sitting property and look out the window, we see the wall across the road and two roof tops going up  the hill.

Last night when Marty was closing the shutters he looked up toward the castle and was blown away.  The castle is lit up at night!  We can’t believe we have been here for over a week and had not noticed before.

Every night I take the dog for a late night walk down the street, but never think to look above the walls and roof tops, except to see the stars.

We raced up to the roof top terrace and this is what we saw.

      We got such a surprise. Stars in the night sky are wonderful. You probably see them more than most because you would be in and out of your bus, whereas in a house you tend to stay inside more.
