Honeymoon in Scotland, trip suggestions

[Jack Daw]

We haven't nailed down the dates, we want to go during the warmer weather, so probably next May or so. From what I'm getting it sounds like we better pack for most potential weather eventualities. I think I read that Scotland had both the warmest temperature and the coldest in the UK just the other day.

I'll look into B&B we were also looking at some of the vacation rentals recommended on tripadviser.com. I do love a full Scottish breakfast, but I don't think I could do it everyday, but I'm sure between those, the short bread and the seafood my waistband will be tighter at the end of it.

I assume you are driving. The one drawback is you don't get to enjoy the view when driving through the mountains; otherwise, you will become airborne and enjoy it even less.

Give way (yield) to the right when entering LEFT into a roundabout (we have only 2 in Houston) and get into the correct lane so that it spits you out onto the desired road. In the Highlands you will be driving on a lot of single-lane roads, which have aneurisms called "lay-bys". You pull over to your LEFT to let on-coming traffic pass. My only concern when driving the single-lane roads was not seeing possible on-coming traffic when there was a "summit" (hill) in the road. Before I left, I printed off the Scottish (British?) road signs to get familiar with the differences. As a lefty, I found driving on the left quick to get used to.
