Scotland 1994


Back to Scotland! Dad and I went back again, this time ignoring England and staying in small city Inverness and big city Glasgow. Click on the itty bitty image to see the whole thing.

Loch Ness, as seen from above castle ruins on the shore. Loch Ness thumb
Loch Ness & me thumb That's me, cruising down Loch Ness and hunting for signs of a monster.
Yes! It's the wee beastie herself!! OK, it's actually a fake, sitting in a large puddle outside the Loch Ness Institute. Nessie thumb
Me in Oban thumb Me in the coastal village of Oban.
And that's my Pop, same wee town. Dad in Oban thumb
Oban thumb Enough of Old Home Week! Dad and I BOTH in Oban.
Mass graves for fallen highlanders on the eerie, tear-soaked fields of Culloden. Culloden thumb
seals thumb Our day on Skye. This is some of the wildlife living offshore of this amazing island.

harbour thumb Still on Skye. I think this speaks for itself.
And that's me, rambling through the wilds of Skye. Skye Tom thumb
Glasgow1 thumb Time to head to the big city, Glasgow.
Yup, that's a mighty big city. Beautiful old architecture, too. Glasgow2 thumb
Arran thumb Me again, searching for shells and pebbles on Arran Island (which is not to be confused with the Aran Islands off the coast of Ireland).
A new view of the Edinburgh Castle, taken from the top of the Walter Scott Monument. castle thumb
Edinburgh thumb And a skyline view of Edinburgh's Old Town, also from the Walter Scott Monument. I've been in Edinburgh three times, and this was the ONLY time the monument was open.
