the woods MacBeth is warned about. The real people that MacBeth is
based on lived in this area in 1047. We had a great walk to this
waterfall and to a cave. I learned that Birn means stream in Scottish.
We have also learned to identify plants. We know what stinging nettle
looks like, but we also can identify Dock leaves that take the sting
out of stinging nettle. The thistle is the symbol of Scotland. I found
a tree ornament of one for my collection.
I think Charlotte Mason would be very pleased with how we've spent our
time in Scotland. We've been out in nature everyday and we've had some
science and history and literature each day.
