  • Like the medieval band of troubadors from which it is descended Tuna de Derecho of Santiago de Compostela gathers at a tavern in a little plaza after their nightly performance to continue their singing, now just for fun.   The gathering finally broke  up at 3:00 AM.   Made up of university students, the Tuna, sings for donations to help them pay for their studies.  Often racey and very suggestive, the singers are nothing if not charming.  Must see in Santiago.

  • Heather covers the hills around Corgarff Castle in the Cairngorms National Park in Scotland. Corgarff Castle is located in Aberdeenshire, north-east Scotland. The castle was built in the mid 16th century by the Forbes of Towie. In 1571 it was burned by their enemy, Adam Gordon of Auchindoun, resulting in the deaths of Lady Forbes, her children, and numerous others, and giving rise to the ballad Edom o Gordon. After the Jacobite risings of the 18th century, it was rebuilt as a barracks. It is now in the care of Historic Scotland and is open to the public.<br />

  • Abernethy is a 12,000-hectare nature reserve sitting within the Cairngorms National Park in Scotland. It is a fine exemplar of the remaining Caledonian forests, featuring a few old "granny trees" amongst growth that is much, much younger and of a different character. <br />
<br />
The RSPB manages the majority of the reserve with Scottish National Heritage (SNH) taking care of part of it. Abernethy is an important site for ancient Caledonian pine trees, and species such as capercaillie and crested tit.<br />
<br />
Like most of Scotland’s native woods, Abernethy has suffered deforestation over the centuries. Sheep and deer browsing then conspired to prevent new tree growth. Blocks of commercial conifer plantations have been sown into areas where there would have been native woodland.

The stones are in the protection of the National Trust for Scotland.  The sheep lend a touch of life and continuity to the ancient setting and are often the most memorable sight to the thousands of visitors who come the sight every year.  The Trust feels that the sheep cause no damage and belong in the landscape.  (But they still have a crew mow the grass regularly.)  Orkney, Scotland

  • The Mar Lodge stag ballroom has a spectacular 2,435 red deer stags heads lining the walls and ceiling. It has been called the Sistine Chapel of stage hunting.  The ballroom was constructed for estate staff balls, required by the need for segregation between master and servant which dominated the period. Built near to the second Mar Lodge at Corriemulzie, it was moved to the present site in 1898. A large timber building in the estate red, it has distinctive lattice trellising, an original Victorian ventilation system and unusual cast iron bracers on stone plinths supporting the walls. Internally the building remains virtually in its original state and contains over 2,435 stag's skulls.<br />

Mar Lodge Estate became a National Trust for Scotland property in 1995.
