A to Z Challenge: O

Hello Everyone, 

I don't just want to see the world abroad, I want to see the world closer to home. I live in Scotland and I haven't seen all of the major cities in Scotland, let alone the UK. 

The Orkney Isles are a group of islands off the North Coast of Scotland. You can take the ferry to it, and at some point you can take the shortest flight in the world from one of the islands. One a clear day, apparently you can see Norway across the ocean. How cool is that? Why would you not want to see the beauty of Scotland, and truly understand the lives of those that live there?
