Inverness....

Inverness was sacked so many times, its not that exciting as a
tourist trap.
After Culloden, The Brits conducted a manhunt Bonnie
Prince Charlie, as well as all Jacobites. The Monument to Flora
MacDonald, who was instrumental in saving the Bonnie Prince's head is
located in Inverness. Don't ask me why, as she was from Skye, and she
smuggled the Prince to the Mainland disguised as her maid. Maybe its
because Culloden is nearby, maybe not. But sure as you're born, this
courageous lady did her bit for the rebellion. I believe she was
imprisoned after the the Prince's successful escape from Scotland. I
don't believe she ever received so much as a Thank-You note from the
Great Pretender. I suppose I shoudn't be bitter, as he wasn't raised
in Scotland..

Pitlochry is a lovely little village, about 1 hour south of
Inverness, so I've put it with Inverness. Its a fun place to
stop...
