This was one of those trips that we had always talked a little bit about, but there always seemed to be something else that had priority. Kirstis' family though was having a reunion of sorts, and possibility of meeting most everyone in one place was too much to pass up. My only regret is that I wish we had gotten to meet them all a lot earlier, they are awesome!

We started our trip in Edinburgh, and then from there drove through Stirling, Callander, Glencoe, the farthest north we made it was Inverness. Along the way we had some great food, got to tour a number of truly awesome historical sites, and enjoyed the truly beautiful scenery.

From Inverness we headed south-west and spent a few nights on the Isle of Skye, and then onto Oban for a night, and then the Isle of Mull and Iona, the latter we spent two nights on. We finished our trip in Glasgow meeting with Kirstis Mom and Sisters again, and had a great couple of days there before heading home.

Our 1st picture of the trip, looking towards St. Mary's Episcopal Cathedral in Edinburgh. We are on a walk here about town prior to meeting with the rest of the family.

We met up with Kirstis' family, and had a great time seeing the sites with them. Here we are on the trail up Calton hill here, and I believe we are looking towards Leith.

This is Kirstis' awesome family that we had the pleasure of meeting in Edinburgh. Scot, center/kneeling gave us a great tour of town. Uncle Alistair and his family also made the trip from Germany to visit as well.

We walked up North Bridge and here I believe we had just turned onto the Royal Mile. We had already lost Uncle Alistair to a whiskey shop by this point.
