BEACHWATCH: I WANNA SAY...BAL-mor-AL? Bal-MOR-al? Balmo-RAL?

Forgive us, but despite a six-year posting in the United Kingdom realm, we were never royal enough to know how to properly pronounce Balmoral, the Queen's favorite vacation castle in Scotland. And even here Down Under, the Balmoral beach and suburb in Sydney's North Shore bears a certain poshness that makes commoners hesitate to say it's name out loud  (that, and the local twang makes me question how many syllables there really are in every English word)
But, seriously, you can just call the place bloody beautiful -- in any language.


That's Balmoral of the story
