    I’d like to visit Scotland because anyone who has ever been there waxes poetically about the rolling grassy hills. Plus, I kind of love bag pipes. πŸ™‚

    I ran the Scotland 10K last year, so much fun! I would love to visit Scotland to try an “all-day breakfast” which I’ve heard is not called that because it’s served all day, but because it keeps you full all day!

    I’d like to go to Scotland so that I can wear my kilt and not look out of place.

    I visited Scotland as a young lass. Interestingly there is a chapel in Edinburgh with a painting of King Dubh pronounced Duff. My husband’s family name means son of the son of Duff and I think it would be cool to show that to my kids. Plus I think the Highland Cou is cool.

    I’d like to visit Scotland because, no, wait. I am! Isle of Skye for 5 days over Easter, so don’t enter me into the draw – I’ll be able to pick up Scottish swag while I’m there. My girlfriend is Scottish so I’ve been a few times. It is a beautiful place, you cannot hope to understand the taxi drivers and like the fact that you can’t, the highland cows are to be seen to be believed and for some reason, in Scotland, the bagpipes make sense. Also, the food is amazing. All day breakfast is just the start. Neeps and tatties, haggis, some of the best salmon in Europe and that famous Angus beef. Plus it is an amazing place to run around, especially if you are into trail running. Enjoy the Scotland 10k!

    I’d love to go to Scotland. It’s the land of my ancestors. I have relatives there whom I’ve never met. Plus, I already wear and race in a kilt. Clan Donald!
