Welcome to Scotland. After a few hours of flight delays, you made it to Inverness and then onto Avoch on the Black Isle. That name conjures up images of somewhere dark and bleak but it’s actually neither an island nor is it black. Supposedly the name comes from the rich, dark colour of the soil. It’s a small piece of land, with agriculture and forestry in the centre, and these lovely little villages on the coastline. 🏴
