This is some unfinished castle
our tour guide on the Loch
IOna
Castle in Argyll
Climbed to the top of this mountain and in the rock was a footprint of the king.. all the cities brought their dirt and put it there and he claimed all their lands by stomping his foot down right here, and there is an imprint in the rock now!
Caroline and I on top of the mountain!
Aurelian! My very very good friend, i will miss him loads when i leave
rolling down a hill
I didnt take any of these pictures, these are all from my friends, because i forgot my camera at my dorm!!! on my bed ;( anyways i have these ones that people put up and i am still waiting on more, which i will post once my friends tag me in them!!! i jumped off this pier into the Loch Loumound which comes with a famous scottish song and a tale about how the King and his friends jumped into the Loch!
By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes,
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond
Where me and my true love were ever wont to gae,
On the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.
Oh! Ye'll take the high road, and I'll take the low road,
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye,
But me and my true love will never meet again,
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.
'Twas then that we parted, In yon shady glen,
On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond,
Where, in purple hue, The highland hills we view,
And the moon coming out in the gloaming.
The wee birdies sing, And the wild flowers spring,
And in sunshine the waters sleeping.
But the broken heart it kens, Nae second spring again,
Though the waeful may cease frae their greeting.
Viking woman!
walking around Oben!
on the shores of Iona
City of Oben!
Laughing and being silly with everyone
