Scotland 2015

In a change from our usual choice of vacations, we went on a domestic holiday this time, a two-week road trip around the
Highlands of Scotland, staying mostly in B&Bs run by incredibly hospitable folk. Some wonderful scenery, some wonderful
breakfasts, and some not so wonderful weather. Wore out two sets of windscreen wiper blades!
(Not actually true, that last statement, but it did rain rather heavily at times.)
