My Scotland

I saw the film about Scotland last year and fell in love.
I love this land for its hills, its glens, its
wild places, big rivers, mysterious
waterfalls, changing skies... and its animals and people!

Scotland lies to the north of England with the North Sea to it's east and the
Atlantic to its west.
It’s is roughly 300 miles north to south and anywhere up to 200 miles east to west.

What do you picture in your mind when you hear the word «Scotland»?

Meal in Scotland is simple and tasty. Traditional soup -with different vegetables , - well warms after cool day. The well-known Scottish salmon is really fine - fresh, natural, with easy sauce and a garnish from vegetables, it is remembered for a long time . Puddings with fresh berries and cream are also tasty.

Scotland has
given rise to many more

people

Sir Walter Scott

My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here, My heart's in the Highlands a-chasing the deer - A-chasing the wild deer, and following the roe; My heart's in the Highlands, wherever I go.
Farewell to the Highlands, farewell to the North
The birth place of Valour, the country of Worth;
Wherever I wander, wherever I rove,
The hills of the Highlands for ever I love. Farewell to the mountains high cover'd with snow;
Farewell to the straths and green valleys below;
Farewell to the forrests and wild-hanging woods;
Farwell to the torrents and loud-pouring floods.
My heart's in the Highlands, my heart is not here,
My heart's in the Highlands a-chasing the deer
Chasing the wild deer, and following the roe;
My heart's in the Highlands, whereever I go.
В ГОРАХ МОЕ СЕРДЦЕ
В горах мое сердце... Доныне я там. По следу оленя лечу по скалам. Гоню я оленя, пугаю козу. В горах мое сердце, а сам я внизу. Прощай, моя родина! Север, прощай, - Отечество славы и доблести край. По белому свету судьбою гоним, Навеки останусь я сыном твоим! Прощайте, вершины под кровом снегов, Прощайте, долины и скаты лугов, Прощайте, поникшие в бездну леса, Прощайте, потоков лесных голоса. В горах мое сердце... Доныне я там. По следу оленя лечу по скалам. Гоню я оленя, пугаю козу. В горах мое сердце, а сам я внизу.

I am sure that my dream
comes true and one day
I and my parents will visit
