Scotland Day 4






Today we began by making our way to Oban, Scotland.  We made a few stops throughout the day and took a few nature walks.




The Harry Potter Bridge


Bus vs. Cow

We were driving around and got stopped by these "hairy coo's" as they called them.

We made it to Oban and Kelsey and I split up, but decided to meet up later at the pub down the street where they gave you traditional Scottish dance lessons!  I went to dinner with some trip mates and Kelsey hung out in the hostel.


We timed it perfectly because as we were coming out of the restaurant, we heard bagpipes coming from down the road.  It was all the people from our hostel being led by a huge Scottish man to the pub!



















Our real Scottish dance partners!



At the pub, I decide it’s time to be a local.  I order myself a whisky, with a splash of water.  It was going down pretty well!  I needed something in me if I was about to learn some new dances.


The guy who led the group here was a one-man show and he was awesome!  He taught us all the different dances as well as played the bagpipes and accordion.  We had such a good time here and it was a great way to spend out last night with the tour group.
