850 kilometers in scooter


we thought of visiting the highlands by car but the price was so high that we instead considered doing so by bus or train. but just before leaving for our tour around the country we came across a scooter rental place and decided to just take the bike. we thought we could always put the bike on the train and carry it back if it became to long or we got too tired. so with this piece of mind we rented the scooter for a few days and off we went to exploring this magnificent country.
what a place!!

what we liked the most was the people. everyone we met had a smile on their face and was terribly kind. they all spoke some english, unbelievable. and everyone was ready to give us directions, wave at us and also laugh when we showed them in the map what we were doing in such a small bike. at the end we never got on the train and stayed on the scooter for the entire trip. we ventured through most little roads and went everywhere we wanted. we did return with a flat and sore butt but with unforgettable memories of a great country we hope to visit again.
