Orkney: Act Two

Tue, 10 Jun 2014 | By vagabondstoo | Views [749]

ONE ADVANTAGE OF THIS MORNING’S RAIN - consecutive sunny days would be too much to hope for - was that we had the Ring of Brodgar Stone Circle and Henge all to ourselves.  The nasty weather even added to the atmosphere.  While the nearby ... Read more >

Orkney: Act One

Mon, 9 Jun 2014 | By vagabondstoo | Views [799]

THE ORKNEYS ARE NOT KNOWN FOR SUNNY SKIES, which is why today was such a pleasant surprise.  Except for a renegade cloud that delivered ten minutes of rain, the day was spectacular.  Even the 90-minute ferry crossing from Thurso was as smooth ... Read more >

SOME TAKE THE LOW ROAD, SOME TAKE THE HIGH ROAD.  We took the long road to the Isle of Skye, with a detour to Urquhart Castle on Loch Ness and a stop in Inverness.  It was another great day for driving, light traffic and sunny skies and we ... Read more >

The Isle of Mull and Iona Abbey

Thu, 5 Jun 2014 | By vagabondstoo | Views [2285]

NOT EVERY HOTEL AND B&B IS LISTED ON BOOKING.COM.  But when we couldn’t get a reservation on the Isle of Mull we decided it was too risky to take a ferry to the island on the chance we could find a place.  Instead we stayed at Oban ... Read more >

Five Castles and the Holy Grail

Wed, 4 Jun 2014 | By vagabondstoo | Views [931]

THERE ARE CASTLES . . . AND THERE ARE CASTLES.  Even the largest, most luxurious were dreary, drafty and cold.  The smaller castles, like Campbell, Doune, Newark, Dumbarton and Dunstaffnage must have been truly nasty places to live, not nearly ... Read more >

The man who went up a hill and came down a...hill

Tue, 3 Jun 2014 | By madocflynn | Views [514]

Sunday 1st June 2014 Today was the result of one of my impulse decisions, a process that always seems to bear fruit. Late last night while pontificating about the need to "get some good healthy air in my lungs", while gulping down copious beers ... Read more >

Dreaming the Skye Bridge

Tue, 3 Jun 2014 | By adriontheroad | Views [577]

One day I woke up from a dream where I was on the Skye bridge. The last time I was in Scotland, about 20 years ago, there was no bridge and one had to cross from Kyle of Lochalsh to Kyleakin with the ferry. I thought it would be a good idea to ... Read more >

Stirling Castle and Inchmahome Priory

Mon, 2 Jun 2014 | By vagabondstoo | Views [2340]

Reflection

Sun, 1 Jun 2014 | By leksie | Views [261]

“And just stay here in this moment” … the song by Aerosmith was stuck in my head as I headed south with my parents. The sunrays were hitting my face through-out the 9hour drive to Plymouth. I thought I would hate doing nothing while ... Read more >
