once upon a time.... I visited a friend of mine, Tobias, in London, UK. Having a drink too much (uhh, guess we've emptied all his stuff) we decided to have a few days for relaxing in Scotland.

His wife organized two tickets from Stansted to Edinborough, Scotland.

 So we've entered early in the morning a Train to Stansted, catch the Flight with "GO" to Scotland and arrived at Edinborough at the early afternoon.

After renting a Car (what the hell do Scotish people declare as a Car??? -- watch that on the picture!) and promising, no drink before sunset, it was November, so the sunset began arout 5pm..  we decided to go to Inverness, in the scotish Highlands. It was a long and lonesome journey. We arrived in the late evening and after looking for a cheap vacation - we checked in at a B&B for a few Pounds with original british breakfast... and go out for some drinks. Damn Scotland is quite cold at night in November! so we got for security reasons a few pints more
On the next Day a visit at Loch Ness  and Fort Augustine was obligatory ;-) even having the evening before some more drinks than neccessary we didn't saw any kind of monsters. But we enjoy the silence, it was like entering another planet... Even it was November we got so much luck with the weather, sunny and quite warm
Elgin - in the middle of nowhere, good for people who want to enjoy the silence.....	because we tried all scotish whiskys we can, - and to cool down a few pints of guiness - there are no photos available ;-)
DuffTown - a town with more Distilleries  than habitants ;-),  the most famous is Glenfiddich
Dalwhinnie and it's famous Distillery http://www.whisky.com/distilleries/dalwhinnie_distillery.htm this is my absolute favorite.
Edinborough: The Capitol of Scotland. Everything looks like in London, the Station was really exciting! Embedded in a valley in the town-centre, looks like a river...  The famous walk of fame.... after wandering through the whole town to a castle (sorry,eva claims that in this strange city there is just one castle at all - one famous caslte, so what? damn shit.. ahh, I've to replace a castle with the castle) we decided to chill out in a pub, the same procedure as everyday
