Our first thought was to go see the Eagles play Jacksonville at Wembley Stadium in London on Sunday. But then we found out that Monday October 29 is a bank holiday in Ireland. That means businesses are closed and schools are also closed for the week for fall holiday. Therefore, many people in Ireland take a holiday (aka vacation) that week. So we decided to set our sights on a longer adventure and set sail for Scotland.
Turns out you can board a ferry from just north of Belfast and also bring your car for the two-hour journey east across the Irish Sea to Scotland. From there it’s a three-hour ride to Edinburgh. Our launching point for our 7 day adventure exploring Scotland. Our overnights will be in Edinburgh (2 nights), Aviemore (1 night), Isle of Skye (2 nights) and Oban (2 nights). I am told Oban whiskey is the popular drink there. So I guess we will be leaving our Guinness beer behind!
