Fort Willin’ to Sterlin’

Ye last o’ leg o’ me trip’ ye comes’ ye’ end

Some of the most scenic parts of the highlands were from Fort William to Sterling. Our group stopped for some Hairy Cooin’, snow fightin’, Glencoe wanderin’, water tappin’, Castle Stalkin’, Scottish food eatin’, and finally some William Wallacin’. This tour came to a close and was a last minute unexpectedly well worth it decision.

It was very interesting seeing the William Wallace Monument and the controversy of the statue really portray the message of ‘Freedom’. First of all, it’s locked in a cage. That’s because the Scots hate it and try to chip “Braveheart” off the shield. Coincidentally the statue looks like Mel Gibson (Australian) and was erected outside the William Wallace Monument AFTER the movie was released. Do you agree with how American culture is altering the culture of other countries?
