Song of the Month: May

Saturday, June 14th, 2014
Song:  Take Me Out by Franz Ferdinand
Why:  I was looking for a Scottish band or song and didn’t want to go with the obvious:  bagpipes.  We spent the last week of May (the reason why this post is late!) in Scotland exploring the city of Edinburgh, the Isle of Skye, and the highlands.  The weather cooperated and we had several surprisingly sunny days to go on a bike ride in the Loch Lamond/Katrine area and some walks in the hills.  We also tasted a few whiskies, but I can’t say that I found one I really like…  the shortbread cookies are much more to my tastes!
Here’s Urquhart Castle on Loch Ness.  The monster didn’t show up in any of my photos!
