The Enchanting, Majestic Scotland

Pin It PIN IT!

As I sit here, hands on the keys ready to pour my soul into this post about Scotland, nothing comes to mind. Not because I didn’t learn or experience anything there, but because no matter what I say and how I say it, I will never do this majestic place justice. I can tell you that the views in the city and the countryside take your breath away to the point you have trouble breathing.

I can tell you that the people are animated, proud, extremely playful, absolutely hilarious, passionate and loving.

I can tell you that on every corner you’ll find a castle from the 12th century towering over the soft, rolling hills painted in bright greens, yellows and oranges.

I can tell you that the food is unbelievably comforting and decadent. I can tell you that the culture, the traditions and the history are so moving you can’t help but cry.

I can tell you I had the time of my life with the most amazing new friends a girl could ask for. I can tell you we had so much fun I was crying laughing about 95% of the time.

I could tell you all of this but it won’t make an impact on you. So instead, I chose to show you. Tell my story of the most enchanting place on earth with photos and videos. Again, a huge thank you to Disney and Pixar for the incredible experience.  *I’m trying to get the videos to work so when they do, I’ll share them!

  16. Posted by Jill @ MadAboutMacarons on Monday, November 12th, 2012 Feeling homesick looking at your photos - recognise the shots, including the castle that French hubby is convinced I have hidden, lol. Shh - it's that pyramid thingy. See it? Worth a fortune. So is the photo of you with a chanter. I've had to delete what I said but if we were in person over a single malt, we'd laugh about that one.

    Disney? Pixar? Don't tell me they're going to make Scotland into a cartoon? Jings.

You look like you fit in there with your gorgeous hair... just throw some plaid on you!
