Do you believe he exists?
I can't believe I missed a sighting by just a few days!

The Loch Ness Monster
Carrie from This Free Bird mentioned that she has an odd fascination with the Loch Ness Monster. Truth be told, I had no clue he was hiding out in Scotland so when I went up to the Highlands it was not on the top of my lists of things to see. But I am so glad I did go because it was one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen (the Loch, not the monster. Although I'm sure seeing him would have been pretty awesome.)
In order to get close to the Loch Ness you can risk your life climbing down the highway and to the water's edge or pay the admission to get into the Urquhart Castle near Drumnadrochit. I chose the latter. Once on castle grounds I walked down to the Loch's edge where it was shockingly empty. It was really just me and Nessie hanging out for a good chunk of time.

I totally believe he exists. As a child I bought a book called 'The Paranormal Investigator's Handbook' and I still take it seriously. I am totally obsessed with the paranormal - like ghosts, bigfoot, and the Loch Ness Monster.
P.S. These photographs are just exquisite, Tiffany! :)
I wonder about it, of course I would love to see myself!! The setting is so gorgeous!!
Oh I have a great new giveaway!!

Nessie is out there! Those are some wonderful photo's.
I have totally been here! I love hearing about places people have been when I've been there myself. I get so excited to hear that they enjoyed them as much as I did!
And I almost have the same photo of Urquhart Castle. My husband and I drove from Aberdeen to Invergarry to stay at Glengarry Castle on Loch Oich and stopped here.
We love Scotland especially the highlands. If you ever get a chance to stay at Glengarry Castle I highly recommend it. It is wonderful.
I finally understand your tweet! (I was a bit confused at first.) Loch Ness is beautiful! Do people ever swim there or are they worried about Nessie?
Okay VERY cool! I totally believe!
Oh MY! That must have been the vacation of a lifetime! It looks so beautiful. And yay for you on the memory rock you brought back :)
Absolutely gorgeous photos - I love just staring at water, could do it for hours!
that is so cool!!! can you imagine people have been saying there's something living down there for so long... ha!
Great photos- what a lovely place- My monkey are into the Loch Ness Monster- I think it was because of a Scooby-Doo episode-
Goodness it's beautiful. Don't know if I believe in the Loch Ness...but it's kind of cool either way.
How gorgeous-but I'm glad you stuck to the safe route to get up close and personal!
I have totally been obsessed forever too!!! And I definitely believe. How awesome that you got to visit. It looks just breathtaking there! xoxo
Your photos are great. I was there years ago, I didn't see it neither ...
Love Scotland! Makes me sing songs from Brigadoon!
yet another reason i never want to venture out into a big, giant, scary LAKE!
i don't believe, but STILL. no thanks. i am not getting in that lake.
sure why not. anything is possible right? I think it would be very very cool if it did!
As I also have a strange fascination with the Loch Ness monster... YES, it has to exist! But in the end it doesn't really matter as long as the loch is so beautiful. I can very much see you relaxing on this tree, Tiffany.
Beautiful pictures! And, yes, it must exist, right? :)
What stunning pictures. I'd love to visit there. Well, I've grown up believing it does and I still do. I mean, they made a movie about it, and I read books as a kid. I believe Nessie is out there somewhere, or atleast I Hope so. :)
This is really an amazing place, the pictures you take are so beautiful!I can't believe he exist! Take a look at my blog, and if you like it, follow me, I'll be waiting for you!
Cosa mi metto???
i've been there too! when i was there it was grey and foggy and very mysterious. the water is crazy ridiculously deep, so who knows what sorts of water creatures live at the bottom? i totally believe. :)
I actually ended up on a Loch Ness Booze Cruise instead of the usual tourist-y ferry ride. It was pretty fun!
when i go to scotland that is first on my list! i totally have a fascination with nelly too!
Hells bells!! I was in the woods with work last week and am only reading this now. Can you hear me screaming???!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!
I totally believe in the Loch Ness Monster!! I read every book in the library when I was a kid and BEGGED the librarian to order more! I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU GOT TO GO THERE. Insert me bawling my head off *here*
Can I have your pebble? I have no shame!!
xo,
