December Daily: travels

isis prompts: tell me about a favorite place you've visited on your travels, or a place you'd like to go to.

Ooh! I want to go to Skara Brae! It's a site on the Orkney Islands of Scotland that has a really surprisingly well-preserved Stone Age settlement. I mean, rooms, some little bits of furniture, hearths, drainage systems ...

I've always wanted to see Scotland. (Among other things, the only remotely interesting part of my ethnicity is the part that's from there.) In addition to Skara Brae, I'd also love to see Loch Ness.

The Orkney Islands is my favourite place that I've ever been. I've been there twice now. Once in 2000 and then again 2008. Skara Brae is incredible. Here's my pics from my last trip to the Orkneys:

If I could move there, I would.

Oh, I'm so jealous!
