Failte don Gaidhealtachd!

Took the obligatory Highlands tour last week with one of my flatmates - quite touristy, but with enough scenery to make me hope I have a chance to come back with hiking boots. Some pictures:

Hamish the cow


Going into the Highlands proper


At Glencoe


Pretty fog picture from somewhere near Glencoe


Urquhart Castle looking out over Loch Ness, as preserved by Historic Scotland (which my archaeology teacher refers to as the Ministry of Tidy Ruins)


Loch Ness (plenty of monsters, incidentally, but only plastic and living outside petrol stations)
