1Dad1Kid.com October in Scotland is usually met with rain, cold, and wind. Yesterday, though, we walked in beautiful sunshine along the shores of Loch Lomond occasionally passing through woods in a park. Some of the trees showed evidence of autumn, and I imagined what the sight would be when the leaves were yellow, orange, and red.

Exploring the Land of Fire and Ice I remember a time, not so long ago, when Iceland was easily overlooked as a travel destination. Given it’s name and remote location in the North Atlantic Ocean, many North Americans viewed Iceland as an icy tundra unsuitable for a vacation.
