Kilt, Scotch and Togetherness!

Ah! So we have finally taken the break. And Scotland it is! The planning process is indeed as enjoyable as the break itself. We usually spend 10 odd days on deciding the place. This is usually the extent of my stamina to argue with Bani. Eventually on the 11th day I give up and we 'mutually' agree on the destination.

This is my second trip to Scotland. I am promptly corrected - My first trip with Bani. We credit Aryabhatta for the invention of zero. I am bloody sure his wife must have played a key role. After all, no matter what a man plans, it eventually comes to naught when his better half takes over!

Super excited about this break...we have ditched the large cities (Edinburgh, Glasgow, etc) and the tourist traps (castles, whiskey tasting and more castles!) to spend more time in the highlands.

The break is also the longest we will be travelling without our lil typhoon. The earlier record was a princely duration of a day and a half and 100 kms away. It is indeed a marked improvement.

ps - This picture was taken against the backdrop of the largest scotch collection in the world. Almost true to the title - it captures Scotch and Togetherness...Kilt is missing and thankfully so!
