I visited Scotland twice on my trip. The first time around I met Steve and that is why there was a second visit to Scotland at the end of the trip. I forgot to bring my camera on our adventures almost every single day, so I have, for example, no pictures of the terrible, terrible, narrow bridge we had to cross to visit Steve's ancestral home. And I have no pictures of
New Lanark (the first project of Robert Owen, whose second utopian mill society, New Harmony, I visited in Indiana; New Harmony does not include a Disney-esque ride through the utopian mill society experience, narrated by a ghost, though) or the
House of Dun or
Dunkeld Cathedral or most of the places we went.
I do have
The Den
The Den is an old, pagany site in Dunino. This is a pool and a hollowed out footprint that were likely used for ancient coronation ceremonies or, depending on who you believe, human sacrifices.
And Seaton Cliffs
I took this picture before I realized that we weren't to the really picturesque part yet and then I didn't pull my camera back out when we did reach the prettiest parts--cliffs and caves on the North Sea.
And the Hermitage
Steve at the Hermitage. This area of Scotland looks like Tennessee.

OK, wait a minute... so you really weren't kidding about meeting a boyfriend? Juice my dear, I need some juice. You have an FSL... FOREIGN Secret LOVER!
It is beautiful there.
Thanks for the photo! It satisfied my curiosity.
Woo! He is real! hehe
Wow, a trip is awesome, but finding a cool guy on your travels, doubly awesome!
Danette--True. We both probably would have preferred it if we'd met closer to the end of the trip, though, instead of right in the middle when I had to go running off to Greece.
