We headed to Scotland on 5 April 2017. Here, you’ll follow us down to England for our second Titanic Memorial Cruise reunion. Then, we head on to see sites all across the beautiful land of Scotland. We spent nearly 6 weeks in Scotland and it feels like we didn’t even make a dent in what the country has to offer! Come with us on an incredible journey. We hope you enjoy the ride!
5 May 2017 The Isle of Skye is one of Scotland’s shining gems. It’s a gorgeous stretch of the country that you should definitely add to your bucket list. We’d be spending the entire day on the Isle of Skye, and it did not disappoint. We’d see the gorgeous Neist Point Lighthouse and the Fairy …
4 May 2017 After a delightful breakfast at Foyers Bay Country House, we drove to Fort Augustus for some sightseeing. When we were satisfied with that little stop, we headed on to our first grand stop of the day. Eilean Donan Castle Eilean Donan Castle is easily one of the most recognizable castles in Scotland. …
3 May 2017 Waking up in Coul House was like waking up in a fairytale. It’s such a gorgeous house! We slept in, letting the sunshine flow in through our window before heading down for a breakfast fit for royalty. A leisurely stroll through the grounds followed, and then we packed up, checked out, petted …
2 May 2017 We had a ferry to catch at 6:30 in the morning, so we were up early to pack and drive the short distance down to the landing. If we missed the boat, we’d be stuck on Orkney until that evening because the ferry only runs twice a day. Not to worry, we …
1 May 2017 What’s better than waking up in a warm pod in the islands of Scotland, looking out to sea? Doing it on your birthday! It was my 29th birthday, and we had a packed day in store. I thought about breaking this post into two parts, but some of the stops for the …
30 April 2017 We were up at the crack of dawn to get started on the long day ahead of us. Getting up and dressing was much easier in the warmth of the lounge, and we were thankful we took the warden’s advice. It was bitter outside and the wind was not letting up, being …
29 April 2017 Early in the morning, we said goodbye to lovely Inverness and got back on the road. We were retracing our steps from the day before, so we knew that we’d be passing by Dunrobin Castle again. It wasn’t on our list, and we didn’t even know it existed until we drove by …
28 April 2017 That morning, we arrived early in Inverness. As we drove through, we promptly fell in love with the place. Inverness is one of those cities that still holds onto small village charm in so many areas. The more we explored, the more we talked about moving there one day. Inverness captured us …
27 April 2017 Sometimes things don’t go as planned, and for once, we were really thankful they didn’t. In between Fort George and Culloden, we were supposed to see Cawdor Castle. The castle ended up being closed while we were there, and honestly, I’m so glad we got the extra time from skipping it so …
26 April 2017 We woke warm and rested after a cozy night in our pod. Seriously, they are a wonderful camping upgrade when the weather takes a turn for the worse! It was bitter cold outside, and there was still sleet on the ground. Not to be deterred, we packed up the car and moved …
