#mcvoyage | Scotland part 2

Aberdeen & Edinburgh

 

I think of:

- getting lost on the beach in Aberdeen

- walking through woods that resembled The Shire

- brunch at The Garden Cottage in Edinburgh

- hiking Arthur's Seat and watching the sunset

- discovering the theme of our trip via the old Scottish word 'Stravig', which means "to wander aimlessly with intent" 

 

#mcvoyage | Stonehaven, Scotland

#mcvoyage went from England to Northern Scotland, where we made day trips to different cities over the course of 4 days.   One of the most memorable days was in Stonehaven, Scotland: a tiny town by the sea, reminiscent of New England.

I think of:

  • watching the sunrise from a bus in Scotland
  • eating fried chorizo for breakfast ( low point, don't recommend )
  • SHEEP
  • cool, crisp weather and fields lined with pines
  • cliffside hike to Dunnottar Castle
  • fields of daffodils everywhere
