Scotland Ma Hame

Tae me Edinburgh is the brawest place in Scotland.

Jist tae hink aboot aw them monuments and aw the scenery that is there is jist fantastic!

Edinburgh for me is the best Capital city in the warld. A love the atmosphere and the musical instruments ye hear bein played hae tae be the best in the warld.

The tap things aboot Edinburgh is Christmas and New Year. Aw the Christmas lichts and Winter Wonderland are jist amazin. Mair than five thoosand folk a day gae tae Winter Wonderland. It's jist magical. Me, ma maw and wee sister gan every year.

Also in Auld Reekie the shoppin's pure wicked anaw. It's jist the best place in the warld.

 The Lang Toun

In ma opinion, Kirkcaldy is wan o the bist places in Scotland. It has its ups, alang wi its doons.

Kirkcaldy has so mony guid places tae look at, like The Beveridge Park - ma favourite. It his a lang High Street foo o shops and restaurants, even grand tourist attractions. There are mony guid events thit happen in Kirkcaldy tae, includin The Links Market and the tiny fermers' market which is foond ootside the toon hoose. It's got an amazin high school wi a big astroturf pitch tae, whaur mony bairns can enjoy daein sports oan. We hae a huge Retail Park tae, tae get yer shoppin done.

One o its doons hooever is the litter dropped by aw the people thit are ower lazy tae pit thir rubbish in the bin.

Apairt fae that, Kirkcaldy is a wonderful place and A am happy tae caw it "hame".

Pitlochry

Tae me, Pitlochry is the brawest place in Scotland. A aways go there wi ma family. We maist aften stay in a caravan. Sadly we cannae bring oor dog but there's loads ae things tae do. Ye could go tae the pool and there are loads ae waterfalls tae walk by and see.

Ma favourite thing we have done in Pitlochry is watchin the Enchanted Forest licht show - it's so bonnie. There are loads ae hotels tae stay in, some near the toon centre. Pitlochry's in the country sae there are some braw animals tae see and aw. Ye willnae waant tae leave. There are guid walks ye can do and guid sichts tae see, tae.
