Nine Things to Love About Scotland:

Kenny Hanley - Absolutely the most delightful and sweet Scottish man ever. He is the Operations Manager for Spectra. Note to event planners - if you do an event in Scotland, you want Kenny on your team. http://www.spectra-dmc.com/

Kilts - Who doesn’t love to see a man in a skirt!

Joseph, the head concierge at the Balmoral Hotel in Edinburgh. Unwaveringly nice and helpful.

Hairy coo. I beg your pardon? What did you call me? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highland_cattle

Castles - Edinburgh, Stirling, Glamis…

A wee cup of tea with proper scones, clotted cream and preserves.

Shortbread and toffee - The Scots make the best.

St. Andrews - It's the birthplace of golf and a gorgeous place, even for a non-golfer like me.

Scottish Gaelic - The language is just plain fun to try to speak and understand.

Note I did not say the weather or haggis. People don’t go to Scotland for the weather or the food!
