Our first stop of the day was Loch Ness. Yes, we were determined to find the Loch Ness Monster, fondly referred to as Nessie. Alas, no one got what qualified as a "real" photograph of Nessie, but the lake cruise was beautiful. There was lingering fog, which just made the experience more mysterious.
After lunch, we headed to a Highland Folk Museum. Again, it was raining. It was a village type museum where you walked a path and visited buildings replicated to fit the era. Since it was outside and raining, we didn't linger long.
Next was a sheep hearding demonstration. The students loved watching the sheep dogs work. I have to say that watching the rancher control his dogs with different whistles was pretty amazing. He had different whistle calls for each dog for each movement he wanted them to make. He must have really intelligent dogs.
We ended the day in Aviemore, Scotland
