June holiday to Scotland

Mike and I joined my sister Patti, her husband Dan,  and my other sister Margaret for a holiday in Scotland. We arrived in Edinburgh on June 7th and started driving counterclockwise around the Highlands. We stayed in some lovely bed and breakfasts ( always great breakfasts), a castle and a luxury Scottish 5-star resort. We golfed at St. Andrews and put our toes in the Baltic Sea, on the east coast, then went to Isle of Skye where we gazed at the Atlantic. In between were walks through many castles and the battlefields of Culloden. We saw where they filmed Harry Potter and watched an old train steam away from the Hogwarts school site. The driving was interesting, on the wrong side of the road. We returned the rental car with a few dents, missing a mirror and lots of scratches. But it was a great time. The best part was spending time with my sisters, always special.
