Scotland Visiter
Visited Britain 2 or 3 years ago and it included visiting Scotland - Edinburgh, Glascow, St.Andrews, Culloden and the country side up to the Isle of Skye. I would like to go back and visit the ancestral area of Argylshire and specifically, Lochgilphead and Kilmartin were they left in 1830 and 1842 respectively. Also go over to Ireland to Leitrum and County Cork for the Irish connection. There were many who left Argylshire and settled in southern Ontario Canada. I am a McDonald with Gillies, Davidson and Campbell ancestry.
The countryside is very beautiful and not overbuilt like many parts of North America. We had good weather and we would go back again to concentrate on seeing more of the entire country and stay at some of the smaller places.
