Thanks to a chance comment from our friends, the Mitchells, we had a wonderful, quick, serendipitous week in Scotland! Here’s the recap of our itinerary:
- Getting there: Glasgow via Reykjavik
- Stirling via the Falkirk Wheel
- Doune Castle and Loch Lomond
- The Royal Mile of Edinburgh
- Southern Highlands via St. Andrews and Pitlochry
- Glasgow
In retrospect, we all agreed we could stay longer. We packed a lot into 4 1/2 days, and could easily imagine a few weeks or even months to take in the ambiance. The north country and the western isles look very tempting. We’ll work on our respective logistics, maybe get a place big enough for friends to join us, and will let you know when we’re ready for visitors!
