Loch Ness, Culloden, sheep and Hairy coo’s


First up this morning we toured around the Isl of sky 





Then off to Loch Ness 









We had a rest stop and found some Hairy Coo’s 





Our TD. Wonderful lady that she is. Bought us carrots to feed them. We all were very excited 

Then to culloden at the battle sight of the last civil war in Britain







 
And finally we visited a farm where I sheared a sheep 



A huge day 
Off to dinner now

  1. Wait, an Aussie goes all the way to the Scottish highlands to shear a sheep?? All the sheep in oz already sheared? Looks like a marvelous tour. They think of everything.

    1. Wouldn’t be allowed near our sheep. Even the farmer said in Australia the wool is very expensive.
      My sheep are self shedding so don’t need shearing

  2. What a day! I hope you got Nessie's autograph. Did you take the photo of the Clan Fraser monument at Culloden because you watch "Outlander"?

    2. Susan here! Outlander is a HUGE set of books, around 10 - and the author still hasn’t finished! The TV series (Series 7 starts today!) is excellent, slightly different to the books but very well done! A lot was filmed very close to my daughter in Scotland and several friends have done several small parts! ;) Enjoy your trip! You seem to be having such a great time!
