Scotland Tours
Just so you know, September and October are the most important times to contact Ed Pearlman because in October all the
details are out and people can sign up for next summer. He wants you to know that he teams up with Dorothy of C-N-Do Scotland
walking tours, Stirling, to present his summer agenda. They limit each of four summer tours to 7 travelers, and include a
unique combination of private musical events integrated with beautiful walks. www.edpearlman.net/scotland for more information..
Those who have taken Ed Pearlman's tours give them rave reviews, but they are limited. That's the beauty and the problem!
Slàinte!
Maggie
