And More Scotland

And on Saturday there was Loch Lomond! Amazing.










Oh, ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low road,
And I'll get to Scotland afore ye;
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond.

It was misty and a little rainy when we arrived, but when the sun came out it was really picturesque. We went and had soup at a little cafe place, it was the sweetest place with a fire and tartan bowls and a souvenir shop with the coolest teapots you've ever seen. Other little shops had freshly baked shortbread you could try. And later there was a wedding in the lovely old church, with a piper out front. It's a sacred pilgrimage place or something so there was a little set up about it. And the drive (been through/over Glasgow) was nice too. It was really kind of the couple I stayed with to take me (and another two ladies they knew) out for a day on the Loch. I loved it.
