Failte don Ghàidhealtachd (Welcome to the Highlands)

So today, the main part of my day was spent taking a tour of the Scottish Highlands (or Hielans, as people with a heavy accent pronounce it). Scotland is divided almost in half into the Lowlands, where St. Andrews is, and the Highlands, the mountainous northern area. Obviously, even though Scotland is not that big of a country, this is too big an area to cover in one day so we got just a taste of what the region is like by traveling along the edge of it. Unfortunately, I have to head to bed now before my trip tomorrow, but I will post a full update of what happened as soon as possible. It was a really fun trip and I have a lot to say about it, including that I got to see Birnam Wood (of Macbeth fame). But for now, sleep. I managed to go running before my trip today and hope to do the same tomorrow, so it will be an early morning!
