ENGLANNIN SENIORIRYHMÄN OPINTOMATKA SKOTLANNISSA 6.-10.5.2012

Our group in front of Edinburgh Castle

 Jamie's Scottish Evening: Tradional music played by a bagpipe, violin and accordeon.

A toast to Haggis: a traditional way to celebrate Scottish national food.Haggis is like a large sausage made of sheep's stomach filled with minced meat and oatmeal.

Opinions about the Scottish Evening:
"Absolutely great. The atmosphere and all music including a bagpipe and a violin was unbelievable. I enjoyed to the fullest." (Annikki)
" The performance exceeded my expectation, especially the young girl, a violin virtuoso! Young girls and boys danced Scottish dances skillfully. The speaker was very amusing. Wonderful show" (Maija)
"Jamie's Scottish Evening was a fantastic show. Gemma Donald was a young fiddler, who played and danced at the same time. She was unbelievable". (Satu I.)

Fish and Chips tasted good in a cosy pub close to our hotel.

A guided tour in the Royal Yacht Britannia

We walked all over the yacht and learnt  a lot of history of the ship and the travels which the ship had made. The yacht was a holiday place for Queen Elisabeth`s family and their friends and visitors and a work place too. It had sailed all over the oceans of the world. There were many salons for guests and private salons for royals. There was the honeymoon salon for Princess Diana and Prince Charles and it was the only place where there was a doublebed in the yacht.(Hilkka)
