SCOTLAND Steve Flinders

I think scotland is very peaceful place and advanced Europe nation.  I heard it is very sold around year because of high latitude.  I learned geography in high school. Of course, I know about Europe to some extent. but I didn't learn Scotland little. So, I don't know in detailes.

 Scotland is the country north of England, part of Great Britain. It is often cold and it rains a lot. But many tourists visit this country every year because of the beautiful empty hills of the north.
Besides, Scottish people are so friendly, warm and funny.
 Everyone in Scotland speaks English . But at one time, people in the north and west of Scotland did not.
They had a different language called Gaelic.
Scotland is not a very hot country so take some warm clothes with you when you go. In the summer, the days are long and it can be warm. But it can be cold and wet, too.
Scotland was a poor country, but today it is getting richer. Life can be hard, but for many people things are getting better.

Scottish tradition 

Many people think first about the Kilt. A kilt looks like a skirt. But males wear it too. To make a kilt , you need about six meters tartan. You can also see big men tossing the caber; people playing Scottish music on the bagpipes; and traditional Scottish dancing.

Scotland nature

My favorite point is beautiful nature. Although Scotland is very cold, there is a beautiful nature and many animals. Why is the north and west of Scotland so beautiful? Because the hills are empty and because the rock is old. There are not many trees on the hills but there is beautiful heather. You can see a red deer, an osprey, a golden eagle and seabirds.
