Scottish Borders
After the technical stop in Lake District, and before arriving to Edinburgh, we went to the Borders Region. A region which has witnessed lots of battles between the English and the Scottish troops, full of (destroyed) abbeys and with an amazing landscape, as it is a natural border with England, with lots of hills, and very few population around… I’m not used to that at all!

The scottish flag is called Saltire, and represents Saint Andrew's cross... And, like in the swedish case, it also appeared in the sky (therefore the blue blackground) of a battlefield and led to the victory of the scottish army.

The Hermitage Castle, in the perfect "middle of nowhere". According to Wikipedia, it was formely known as the "guardhouse of the bloodiest valley in Britain". After seeing where it lies, I perfectly understand that name.

@Baudo: Thanks! I’ve got a Nikon D60, and most of the pictures are taken with a 18-55 3.5-5.6 VR lense.
@Anonimo: Gracias. El status voy a quitarlo en breve, porque no me resulta excesivamente cómodo de actualizar.
