One-day tour of the Scottish Highlands!

-
For my first (and only, so far!) time in Scotland, I stayed mostly in Glasgow because I heard that it was nice and also more affordable than the capital... like staying in Brooklyn instead of New York or in Oakland instead of San Francisco. 

I decided to go on a one-day tour of the Scottish Highlands since there's no other way I would have been able to visit the more remote places on my own and without a car. I went on the "Myths, monsters, and mountains" Rabbie's tour. Absolutely no regrets at all!
Location: Scotland, UK

Sun Moon Lake and Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village

Even though one of the most well-known tourist spots in Nantou County (and possibly Taiwan in general) is Sun Moon Lake (日月潭), I only went for the first time during my last trip to Taiwan. The lake itself is quite nice. There should be places where you can rent bikes or scooters to go around, though I didn't see any where I was. There's also a ropeway that connects the lake to the Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village (九族文化村), which is an amusement park with museums, roller coasters, shows, games, and lovely trails. It's a great place to learn about Taiwanese aborigines. I hadn't heard of the amusement park before, so I only planned a one-day visit of the lake and we spent half the day in each place. I think that the amount of time to see both places was about right since our itinerary was already pretty full, but it wouldn't have been boring to stay longer either. One reason I finally decided to go this time is because my dad was also back in Taiwan and he drove us.

British airline

"Christmas dinner or [other normal dish]?" "What's Christmas dinner?"  "Turkey"  "British breakfast or frittata?"  ...not going to bother to ask... (nor do I remember what the breakfast had! But it was fine) (Not going to mention the airline because I don't like them! Even though the food was okay. I only used them because I had some points but in the end I didn't save any money. Also, if you try searching for Taiwan it populates "Taiwan, China" 😠) Random picture from inside LHR
