Our Scotland Trip
Sep. 10th, 2022 01:04 pmWe just completed (actually wednesday) a splendid 2-week trip to Scotland. It was a Road Scholar trip "The Best of Scotland". Our second trip with them (used to be called elder hostel) and there will be more with them. There were 24 of us - an excellent leader, DaveCrowe, and local guide: Alisdaire MacDonald.
We started in Glasgow and ended in Edinburgh - travelling by coach for local trips and to change hotels. For more than half of the trip we had the same coach and driver: Wee Stevie, he was called. Tius was my first trip to Scotland, Robert had been before several times many years ago to the Edinburgh Festival.
Fascinating country: beautiful scenery, lakes, mountains, museums, castles.
Inveraray Castle
We did reallly well for good weather - it was better than the forecasts - only twice when we were walking around did we really need raincoats and once an umbrella.
