"Sir Walter Scott"

The SS Sir Walter Scott is a historic steamship that has been operating on Loch Katrine in the scenic Trossachs region of Scotland since 1900, Built in 1899 by William Denny and Brothers in Dumbarton (with the engine by Matthew Paul & Co.), the ship was constructed as a "knock-down" vessel: assembled for trials on the Clyde, then dismantled, transported by barge up Loch Lomond, hauled overland by horse-drawn carts, and reassembled on the shores of Loch Katrine before launching in 1900. She measures about 110 feet (34 m) long, with a beam of 19 feet (5.8 m) and 115 gross register tons. (Grok) HFF and a great weekend to all, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Large view recommended!

Sea Mist

The incoming tide rolling in off of the Firth of Forth brings sea mist to the fishing village of Crail, in the Kingdom of Fife! Crail is a stunning historic fishing village in the East Neuk of Fife, Scotland – often called one of the prettiest spots along the entire Scottish coast! It's a former royal burgh (dating back to the 12th century) with a tiny, picturesque harbour that's probably the most photographed in Scotland. The village features charming cobbled streets, whitewashed cottages, a lovely 12th–13th century parish church, HWW! to all!..................

Confused Weather!

Dunnet Bay is one of the most stunning and remote beaches in Scotland, located in Caithness on the far northern coast of the Scottish Highlands. It's a beautiful, sweeping arc of pale golden-white sand stretching over 2 miles (about 3 km), backed by extensive rolling sand dunes and machair (coastal grassland). This makes it a true gem along the North Coast 500 route — often described as one of Scotland's finest beaches. It is however subject to rapid weather changes, In 16.9 format therefore a large view if you are able, please!

Ruins in 16.9

Back to the Ayrshire coast and Dunure Castle which is a dramatic ruined medieval fortress perched on a rocky promontory overlooking the Firth of Clyde on Scotland's west coast, in the village of Dunure, South Ayrshire. Notable events include: A 1429 diplomatic meeting between representatives of King James I and the Lord of the Isles. A three-day visit by Mary, Queen of Scots in 1563. The infamous 1570 "Roasting of the Commendator," where Gilbert Kennedy, 4th Earl of Cassilis, tortured Allan Stewart (Commendator of Crossraguel Abbey) over a fire in the castle's Black Vault to force him to sign over abbey lands.
