10 Things You'll Love About Scotland


1. Scottish Whisky

Dubbed "Scotch" by Americans, this stuff is the crème de la crème of all the whiskeys. Our tour brought us to Tomatin, a whisky distillery we got to go inside of:


I'm not a huge whiskey fan, but when it comes to Scotch whisky, I'm suddenly converted. 


2. Castles! 




3. Men, in Kilts


4. The Sun Staying Up Late

I took this photo around 10 pm! 

5. These Guys




6. Signs that Remind you that you're in Scotland

I have a thing for finding unique signs in different countries. 

7. Dramatic Cliffs




8. Loch Ness

Okay, so it's not the most impressive lake in the world. But it's world famous and surrounded by pure serenity.


9. Profound Memorials to the Fallen

 Each protruding stone represents a Jacobite that died in the famous 1746 battle.

The dominant and undeniably cool William Wallace Memorial.


10. Green Fields Forever

  1. "Saying goodbye in their own way. Playing outlawed tunes on outlawed pipes." I tried saying that in my best Scottish accent, and it ain't that great.

    I LOVE this post. LOVE IT I tell you. And the last post. LOVE IT too. I think I'd like Scotland. We've been talking about Iceland, but most likely will wait a couple of years until the boy is a little older and can get more out of it.
