Scotland: travelogues(s), jigsaw puzzles, photographs and information

Our first long trip abroad together brought us to Scotland, a place where neither of us had been before. And it was love at first sight. The wild nature on the west coast, the impressive castles and large amount of prehistoric antiquities, the nice single track roads that meander through deserted areas and especially the friendliness of the people, has made us return to Scotland almost every year. Scotland is an autonomous country within the UK, although a referendum in 2014 showed that a large proportion (but not a majority) would also like independence.
The history of Scotland has been rather turbulent, with Scottish traditions, the division of the population into clans (tribes) and the struggle against the English playing a major role. There are few places in the country where history is not tangible.
We have not yet seen everything in Scotland that we treat as a separate country on the website because it has such a unique character of its own. We probably haven't been there for the last time.
Here are our travelogue(s), photographs, online jigsaw puzzles of travel pictures and information about Scotland.
