Beautiful Scotland

Just got back from my one-week vacation around Scotland (and a bit of Northern England) with Aik Win and Angela. And boy – the road trip was magnificent! You’ve gotta see it to believe…

Here’s a quick list of the places we stopped by:

York (England) – The large Cathedral here (York Minster) is simply majestic
Lake District (England) – Breathtaking, and Majestic
Edinburgh – A beautiful cultural city with attractions like the Castle and Scott Memorial
Falkirk – The Falkirk Wheel is a scientific wonder built to transport ships up 150 feet
Stirling – Home of the Wallace Monument (Recall Braveheart?) and Stirling Castle
Glencoe – Breathtaking view of Scotland’s most famous valley
Fort William – Amazingly picturesque mountains, rivalling Lord of the Rings!
Loch Ness – Yes, home of the famous Nessie - We even drove one circle around the lake!
Loch Lomond – The largest (and one of the most beautiful) lake in all of mainland Britain
Glasgow – Shopping paradise of Scotland, with a vibrant lifestyle
Liverpool (England) – Awesome Beatles Museum, River Fest and Anfield
Apologies for the short post – time’s really tight. I promise to write more of this wonderful trip.
Here’s a quick summary of my upcoming schedule:
16-19 June – Rome and Italy
20 June – Day trip to Dublin (Ireland)
21 June – Balik Kampung!!!
Hence, it’s gonna be really tight for me to update this blog. Nevertheless, please stay tuned. There are tonnes of amazing stories to be told...
