Scotland - Elgin Cathedral

After visiting Fort George and the Dallas Dhu Distillery, we found ourselves with just enough time to visit the Elgin Cathedral before it closed for the day.  This cathedral is another historic site on the Explorer's Pass list of sites to visit.  Again, this pass is a great opportunity to save money!

I'm am not a religious person by any means, so the thought of visiting a cathedral is usually not at the top of my list.  However, we had time and were close to this historic cathedral and I must admit it was quite interesting to view.  This is not an intact cathedral as you can see in our images below.  It has a very historic, castle type of appearance.  The two towers have been maintained and you can walk to the top of one and get an amazing view of the town!










After the cathedral doors closed, we took the opportunity to find a couple of geocaches in the area.  Anytime we travel to a new state or new country we've never visited before, we make sure to find a geocache or two to knock if off the to-do list.
