It would be our goal to have everyone visit as much historical places as we can fit in without trapping you on a coach for your entire trip....balance is the key.

Accommodations will be clean and comfy....but not over priced!

ALBANNACH...

I wonder if David's book 'On the Trail of Scotland's History' would be great for something like this. He pretty much maps out a road trip through Scotland in it.

Another company is or was going to use David's book as a guide. Albannach being originals probably wouldn't want to use it or be accused of idea stealing because of this. I myself can't. Wait to find out what the band can come up with.

Really?! I didn't know that. I want to visit a number of places in David's books because they are off the beaten track and sound very interesting and the sites stand a better chance of not being so commercialized.

Looking forward to hearing all the details and crossing my fingers that the timing will work out. April is good

Vicki · « **Reply #63 on:** Monday 5 September 2011, 00:39 »

What I wouldn't give to be able to go.....One of the things I would have changed during the first trip was to be able to spend more time with the band. Unfortunatly I have recently found myself unemployed. In July, my number came up in the latest layoff wave at my former company (I had only been there 22 years

) I'm not bitter about being let go but to miss an Albannach trip because of it........NOW I'm bitter!

Please have a dram or two, or three for me!!!

sarahchris · « **Reply #64 on:** Monday 5 September 2011, 05:01 »

I would love to go! Do I have to graduate from "newbie" to "misfit" before April? Someone quick hand over the cliff notes...

MacMutt · « **Reply #65 on:** Monday 5 September 2011, 13:28 »

am sure all you have to do is have the desire and money to go!

It is not something that will be taken on lightly, alot of planning will go into this trip, there is already alot of brain storming going on.
By now you know that its BROTHER who will be coming over to join us...so between both bands and a couple of musical guests over here we shall have the entertainment sorted out.

It sounds good to me. Just need to see if I can swing the costs.

I was introduced to Albannach by a friend and I enjoy the music. My friend went to the last Scotland trip with you guys and said it was a blast, so I am planning to go with her this time as long as the deposit amount is not too high.

Hello friend

If you don't have it, borrow it!

I promise, you won't regret it!
