Scotland Fun


So, in keeping with us not understanding much of what is said in this country, we offer up the following street signs
O.k. and more touristy things. We went to an island called Orkney today and had a fun filled afternoon. Saw one of the oldest remnants of Civilization in history, a place called Skara Brae
These remains were from about 5000 years ago, and consisted of about 8 "homes" identical in size and shapes. Then we saw the Ring of Brodgar, built about 4000 years ago, long before Stonehenge.
Then, we went to even more ruins (lots of ruins in Scotland), except the cool thing about these is that they were on an island reachable only during low tide. So, 1st pic is during high tide, where you can see the pier submerged, and 2nd pic during low tide when you can walk across the pier.
Had a blast with our friends Janet and Colin. They're going to Ireland for 2 weeks to play in a "Train" tournament. Best of luck!
