Last 2 days in the Highlands

It's over. No more beautiful Scottish Highlands. I'm back in my flat at Stirling, realizing I forgot to blog last night. It was a pretty long day, which is why I forgot, so I apologize to my avid readers who are awaiting photos and comments about the beautiful lush mountains and lochs. Yesterday was spent primarily on the Isle of Skye, which I thought was just one island on its own. It's actually several small towns and thriving communities, with everything to Enchanted Rivers, beautiful mountains, and sheep on the roads. Once again, the pictures speak for themselves. What I write about on here is rubbish unless you can see what I'm talking about. Lots of stories about fairies, giants and spells are prevalent around here...if that's what you believe. Me personally, I keep an open mind. I'm in a foreign country; it's nice to see what the locals believe in.

The Enchanted River

Such a stunning view!!!!

Why? Because I can

This just reminds me of something out of a nature magazine or something

In the Fairy Glen.

After we perused around the Isle, took lots of pictures and ate yummy food, we returned to our hostel and went on a boat ride with one of the local fishermen. We rode out on the loch, loaded up the net, and caught TONS of small fish and scallops, which apparently you can eat raw. I ate 3 of them! They were rather tasty. It was just really fascinating to see all the creatures on a boat within just a few feet away from me, and I picked them up and was looking at all of them. Best part of the night. Today was pretty boring, not going to lie. Our group was on the bus most of the time, but seeing Loch Ness was pretty stinking cool though! However, Nessie was not spotted today. :[ After we visited Loch Ness, we traveled through Inverness to Culloden, a very historical battlefield. I don't have room to explain, but feel free to do your own research on it; it's definitely worth a gander. Our last stop was the Hermitage, which was like a wooded area, which was rather beautiful. And now I'm back in Stirling, getting ready to meet up with some friends for some pub quizzing and for me to eat. I am incredibly bus lagged, and I need FOOD. I will also be posting along with pictures a song I really really like and was introduced to on this trip. Cheers! P.S Ginger Beer is GOOD! :D
