Where's the emoticon for jealousy?  Absolutely gorgeous!  When did you take these?  Been 8 or 9 years since I was in Scotland.  Would so love to go back again.

Beautiful photos, Scarlet! Thanks for sharing your trip. I have to get my travel experiences vicariously, for the most part, and I always enjoying seeing where you've been. Welcome home.  Smiley

Lovely pictures.  Doone is my very favorite castle.  I used it as the model for the hero's castle in The Devil of Kilmartin.  I was there years ago and I still remember it quite vividly.  Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for taking time to post the pictures.  Were you on an organized tour, or did you plan your own tour?

What did you read on your K when you were there?

I've been reading the Hamish MacBeth mystery series, so I really enjoyed seeing your photos.

I went on my own.  My day trips to Loch Ness and Loch Lomond were through rabbie's tours.  I highly recommend them.  I bought my ticket and audio guide for Edinburgh Castle in advance on-line so I skipped the line at the ticket office.  Also, this was my second trip to Edinburgh, so I kind of knew my way around.  I had the Lonely Planet Guide on my kindle, which came in handy for maps, but that not much else.  Because I have a DX, it's hard to read on a plane (especially with the glare from someone else's nook in my eyes), so I actually had a couple of paperbacks with me.
