Edinburgh 2

Given that Edinburgh is just one city in Scotland and that we also wanted to experienced the world-renowned beauty of the Scottish highlands, we decided to spend all day Friday on a guided tour of the region.  This trek would take us north and west in a large loop covering much of Scotland, the farthest point being Loch Ness.

The Scottish Highlands give northern Italy a run for its money in terms of stunning beauty.  The tranquil hills and mystical lochs were nothing short of surreal in both their grandeur and effect.  It is very easy to imagine why the legends of Loch Ness came to be once you have visited there.  The power and mystery of this place is overwhelming.  Overall, it was a day well spent.
