Mrs. Liam and I just returned from 17 day trip to England, Wales and Scotland. Here are a few pics of our trip: At Stonehenge: https://scontent-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hpho...15083639_n.jpg At the Scottish border: https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hpho...54695470_n.jpg In Edinburgh; https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.n...23355847_n.jpg At Culloden: https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hpho...95905287_n.jpg At Urquhart Castle: https://scontent-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hpho...46&oe=53EED110 At Eilean Donan Castle: https://scontent-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hpho...18686195_n.jpg Skye: https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.n...78598660_n.jpg Near Glencoe: https://scontent-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hpho...52016697_n.jpg It was a wonderful trip and whetted our appetite to return.

Great pics. Yes indeed it would whet your appetite. You have so much more of Scotland still to see, haste ye back. You would have been only a few miles from me here in Hawick when you crossed the Scottish Border via the A68 at Carter Bar.

Grand photos. Thanks for sharing! Cheers,
A great travelogue of pictures. Thanks for posting them. Looks like you hit a good number of the great places in the UK (except for Hawick, of course). Did you just happen to bump into that piper near Glencoe? Was he playing a lament to the MacDonalds?
I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

Here are a couple of shots, one from Edinburgh and one from Glasgow that I found interesting: https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.n...79110998_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.n...98437994_n.jpg Was the inspiration for the Glasgow Imax theatre a haggis? Alex... we spent about 4 hours in the Riverside Museum of Transport - what a great place. https://scontent-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hpho...29522877_n.jpg Bill

More on The Imax here:- http://www.glasgowarchitecture.co.uk...cinema-glasgow Yes indeed the new Riverside Museum is well worth a visit. I'll be back there on 22nd of this month stewarding a static display of vintage vehicles on the museum forecourt for part of the day and then driving a vintage bus on a tour of Glasgow's west end.
I recognized the park, near Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh and I saw the view from Urquhart from the other direction, as I was on the Loch. Too bad you didn't get a shot of Nessie behind you. My wife and I actually saw Nessie's back looping up from the water while taking the Nessie cruise. Everyone else was busy watching my kids chase a frog in the bottom of the boat so they missed it. Thanks for the pics.

Lovely pics. Glad you had such a great trip, though it looks as if the weather wasn't very kind to you!
