1. It's cold, and it's wet. To misquote Mark Twain, "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in the Inner Hebrides."
2. The only way to avoid stepping in sheep poop is to stay on the bus.
3. There is no Mexican food in Scotland. I don't know why this surprises me so, but it does.
4. The Glaswegian accent is charmingly unintelligible, until you're trying to figure out what the gate agent is saying at the airport.
5. Caledonia MacBrayne would be a great pen name for a writer of historial romances.
There will be stories of my Scottish adventure coming soon.
HALLELUJAH!

Caledonia MacBrayne is a WONDERFUL name for a writer of historical romance!
Welcome back! Awaiting posts, always fun getting your views and sharing the adventure.
i'm so glad you've returned safe and sound.
i can't wait to hear all your stories.
Love a travel journal! And the accent is even harder to understand and more charming if the lad is in a kilt.
I liked Inverness too....
