Summer in Scotland

Me and my family really like travelling, and we try to do it as much as possible. Last summer we went to Scotland, because we thought it would be relaxing and uncrowded, and the landscape would be beautiful. We visited many places, but the most exciting thing we did was taking a small scientific boat in the North Sea.

It's a touristic route that starts from John O' Groats, a small town in Scotland's northern coast. The objective is to see the wildlife. It goes around the Orkney Islands and gets back. When the tour started it was sunny, but the weather started to get worse and worse. The waves were almost as tall as the boat itself, and standing was very difficult. The rain was thin, but cold and fast, and the wind was strong. Of course, it was really cold. Despite it all, we saw many different birds, fishes, and grey seals.

It was very cool. The islands of the North Sea are very beautiful, and the birds and seals were amazing. Even the bad weather made it more interesting. We had a very good time, and I'd love to do something like that again.
