Scotland

For the third and final post in my little "UK Series," here is the beautiful Scotland! 

We started up in Fort William. Here we went on a cruise down the loch, went on a short hike (not up Ben Nevis, that would have been too much for me!), and explored the adorable little tourist town.

The boat ride on the loch was interrupted by some rain, but not for long! It added a bit of excitement and left us with some breathtaking clouds to admire. 

And then it was down to Edinburg! The trip between these two is about four and a half hours on the train, but it's worth it. I wanted to stop and see more places on the way but unfortunately we did not have enough time.

Looking back towards the entrance of St. Giles Cathedral.

 I highly recommend visiting St. Giles if you ever find yourself in Edinburg, even if you are not a religious person. The architecture is absolutely stunning and the stained glass is amazing, plus it is full of history! The famous room  in the back of the cathedral is definitely worth visiting. It is called the Thistle Chapel, this is where people can get knighted (for all you history/royalty buffs).

Many of the buildings in Edinburg look like these, giving the city a fun historical feel.
