Travel Trivia Thursday
Posted by Hans Ericsson | Under Destination Spotlight Thursday Oct 16, 2008I don’t know who Damien or Todd are, but congratulations on knowing the answer to last weeks travel trivia. Everyone else had good guesses, but the building is Saint Basil’s Cathedral in the Red Square.
In the spirit of Halloween, we are going to take a break from our traditional trivia, and present you with something a little different.
The photo featured below is an illuminated carved pumpkin (fashioned by yours truly), which has a nickname you are probably familiar with. The nickname comes from a country in Europe that has a famous castle, with an even more famous stone.
Q. Who brought said stone to this famous castle?
Any questions? Good luck!

Is it the Blarney Stone found at the Blarney Castle in Ireland? The stone was said to be presented to Cormac McCarthy by Robert the Bruce.
Hans, does your pumpkin have the gift of gab?
Aye Aye Aye!
Well someone beat me to the answer, however, i can elaborate on it a bit in that Robert the Bruce is one of Scotland’s most famous Kings and is well liked in Ireland for his efforts to rid the island of British rule in 1315!
