Inverness was really wonderful, even if the weather was crazy. I guess to most Scots that's normal weather, hot one minute, pouring the next, rainy for an hour, and back to beautiful. I do love the weather, even though I complain about it quite a bit. When you're somewhere this beautiful, it doesn't matter if it's cloudy.

While there, we went to the Culloden Battlefield and took a tour of Loch Ness(although none of us quite spotted Nessy). Loch Ness was beautiful, and huge, which I wasn't expecting. Our tour guide said that every person alive today could fit into Loch Ness, three times over. Plus, it's freshwater- the largest quantity in England and Wales combined. Impressive, yeah?

I'm glad to be back in Edinburgh, though. I was hoping Inverness would be smaller, like St. Andrews or Fort William, and I was surprised when it turned out to be such a large, and rather new looking, city. It didn't hold as much history as Edinburgh seems to, but in the end, that was fine.
