Inspirational Scotland for groups
To see her is to love her, and love but her forever. Robert Burns was never officially in the diplomatic corps, but he could easily have been hospitality ambassador for Scotland. His only part in the machinery of government was his day job as an exciseman - a customs officer in modern parlance. Visit Edinburgh’s Leith Docks; for high tea aboard MV Fingal; a high seas reminiscence aboard the former royal yacht Britannia; or a high retail time at Ocean Terminal shopping mall; and you may even meet his contemporaries at work on the commercial side of the port.
Burns’ lines have a timeless, effortless grace, that transcends any temporary drama in human history. If ever there was a Scot who took the long view, it is the national bard. So, even if your group plans for the current year have been in some turmoil, fear not. Seas between us broad have roared, since days of long ago, but the timeless performance of Scotland’s rich natural and cultural heritage remains, “until all the seas gang dry.”
