Onto Perthshire, Scotland!

Sadly our time in Inverness came to a close and our group was off to the next destination--Perthshire! 

On the journey towards the hotel, we made a few stops. The first was to a cooperage. They make and refinish whiskey barrels for distilleries. We were able to watch as they worked while learning more about the process. 

Another stop was to see a sheep dog demonstration. Wow! Those are smart dogs! The sheep dog owner also has a baby coo (Highland cattle) that we were able to meet. Charles had the opportunity to feed her, too.

After dinner at our hotel, we were treated to a show from famed female bagpiper, Gilly. She was so entertaining! She told us about how she became a bagpiper (to get a guy) and all her adventures as a female piper. She has so much personality and it was fun to listen to her stories in-between her bagpiping.
