April weather remains changeable…what am I saying? It’s like that all year round.
Living with four seasons in one day is the norm here in Scotland. In fact the old idea that the seasons were four distinct phases in the year has become a rather quaint way of looking at the passing of time. Although the flora and fauna know are familiar with the changes and adapt well, I struggle with finding the right kind of raincoat.
The Grant Tower at Urquhart Castle beside Loch Ness. A great castle in a wonderful location, and one of the best sites on the loch for Nessie spotters. The castle was possibly built on the site of a much earlier Pictish fortification. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/drumnadrochit/urquhart/index.html
@danjac Bone!
Mi vizitis Skotlandon dum du semajnoj en 2005 kaj mi tre ŝatis tiun landon.
Mi tiam estis kun mia 6 jara filo kaj ni vizitis Glasgow kaj Drumnadrochit (vilaĝo apud la "Loch Ness").
Seit Jahrhunderten gibt es Berichte über ein Seeungeheuer, das im schottischen See Loch Ness leben soll. Zuletzt gab es erneut eine Suche - erfolglos. Nun heizen Fotos den Mythos um Nessie weiter an.
Wie kommt man denn ernsthaft auf die Idee, #LochNess nach #Nessie zu durchsuchen - mitten im August? Es ist doch schon seit Urzeiten bekannt, dass #Nessie in den Sommermonaten ihren Urlaub vor Mallorca verbringt.
A search for the Loch Ness Monster ends without evidence of existence.
The biggest Loch Ness Monster hunt in over half a century has resulted in several reports of possible sightings but nothing conclusive. The evaluation of the data would take a lot of time, the organisers said.
How to see the Loch Ness Monster using your senses:
Taste the fresh Scottish air.
See the beautiful Highland scenery.
Listen to the peace of the Lochs.
Feel the essence of the land.
Sniff copious amounts of Drugs....
Loch Ness: Größte Suchaktion nach Nessie seit Jahrzehnten beginnt
Dutzende Freiwillige, ausgerüstet mit modernster Technik, machen sich an diesem Wochenende auf die Suche nach Nessie. Das angebliche Seeungeheuer im Loch Ness soll endlich aufgespürt werden. Die Tourismusbranche freut es. Von Gaby Biesinger.
Here for a cryptid interpretative centre that knows what it’s about; we can never have too many folklore museums and related visitor attractions in this world:
What lies beneath: a fresh wave of Loch Ness tourism promises monster rewards for Drumnadrochit
#Drones galore and other sensors, if I were #Nessie I'd go into hiding quick 😬
"Organised by the newly revamped #LochNessCentre, volunteers from across the globe will participate in person and online in what is believed to be the largest surface watch, searching for breaks in the water and any inexplicable movements over a two-day period." #CryptoZoology#LochNess#Legends
We have arrived in the little town on Fort Augustus at the very southern tip of #LochNess. The hotel is somehow both cosy and imposing, it has a lovely large wood panelled lounge with a real fire and a grand piano. We’ve seen some amazing scenery on our journey from the ferry port and it hasn’t rained as much as was predicted. That’s a big win in the #highlands! #Scotland#RoadTrip
