We also visited the Highland Folks Museum in Aviemore. It is an open air museum, much like Mini Malaysia in Malacca. It has a reception area (cafe, toilets, gift shop and playground), 1930s folk village and 1700s folk settlement.
In the 1930s, they were mostly farmers. The museum build a school, house, post office, shop, barn and shepherd's house.
the school...
the shepherd's house (notice how small it is- the kitchen is next to his bed!)...
me and the shop lady...look at the 1930s tin biscuits..and the scale in front of her...
the vintage bus we took to go to the 1700s settlement (dah x larat nak jalan)
In the 1700s they lived in tribes, and every tribe has its own leader (who owns the biggest house). Other members of the tribes live around the leader's house, within stone walls that mark their territory.
rumah penghulu...
the village...
inside the house...
with one of the villagers...
walking back from the settlement...
the boys played at the playground...
The next day we checked out early and started our 8-hour journey home to Manchester. We drove south, this time via Glasgow..(so that Wanma can say to her friends.."den dah poie dah Glasgow..").
Alhamdulillah, we had a very memorable vacation in Scotland and came back in one piece.
Tired but happy boys....
