SCOTLAND!

Posted September 21, 2014 by Willa Blair in Uncategorized / 13 Comments

Scotland is everything they say it is–and more.  Beautiful, mystical, historical, sunny, misty, fortified, spirited…I could go on, but for once, I’d rather show you!

Have you dreamed of being on the water? Or of what might be in it?

Lochs Lomond, Lochy and Ness

Might you fancy a Wee Dram?

 

Or care to try your hand at hunting with a hawk, or owl, or eagle?

 

Have you touched a Standing Stone or seen a Fairy Ring?

At Clava Cairns

Or visited a Castle or Manor House?

Stirling, Cawdor, Blair, Edinburgh, and St.Andrews Castles, Holyrood Palace, Culloden and Cameron Houses

Seen the heather in bloom in the Highlands, or visited breathtaking gardens?

 

If my pictures make you long to be in Scotland, go!  It’s not too late to enjoy more of the 2014 Year of Homecoming events.  Or wait for next spring.  Whenever you visit, you’ll have a wonderful time!

    Reblogged this on Play in the Rain with Jolene and commented:
    Scotland…as Americans we are fascinated with this land it’s history and the people – Kilts are a whole fascination on their own. Scotland is on my short, short bucket list as in number one or two. Meeting Hugh Jackman would be my other….but I think I have a better chance at Scotland. A fellow writer just got back from Scotland and filled her blog with wonderful pictures. I also had a friend met Hugh Jackman, but she didn’t have any pictures. Thanks you Willa Blair for sharing your photos.

    Oh my gosh, your photos are gorgeous. The castles remind me of some of the ones that we stayed at and visited while in various parts of France, and it gave me a lovely trip down memory lane. I know that the Scotland castles, etc. are not the same as in France, but they did bring back fond memories.

    Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us. Now on to the other 995 to share with us.

    Thanks you again.
