In Search Of The Loch Ness Monster

Here is the last of my Scotland photos. So far, I think it's my favorite county that I have visited over here. 
 So beautiful. This was on our drive to Urquhart Castle.
 What a rebel.
 There it is through the trees. It wasn't open for the day yet so we just got pictures of it from the parking lot.
 Ermahgerd! Lerch Nerss Mernster!
 We stopped by the Loch Ness and had a photo shoot with this giant purple replica.
 There she is in all her glory.
 Tracy and I looked everywhere for Nessie.
 Oh, there she is!
 Next stop was Culloden Battlefield. Above is a small cottage on the battlefield.
 The Battle of Culloden was the final confrontation of the 1745 Jacobite Rising.
 Basically, it's on giant graveyard because after the battle, no one really 'cleaned-up'. They just buried the bodies where they died.
 Then they went back and put markers over them, sometimes including several names to identify where the bodies were buried.
 Another view of the cottage on the battlefield. I would bet money that cottage is haunted.
 Memorial Cairn.
 Next we stopped in a town called Dunkeld and had lunch and toured the Dunkeld Cathedral.


 This is Forth Bridge in South Queens ferry. Our last stop before Edinburgh.
