Often in Scotland it can feel like the only difference between summer and the rest of the year is that it doesn’t snow. (This isn’t a guarantee!) But when the weather is good, it’s a truly special place-here are some things you can do in summer when the weather is nice.
See
With the richest wildlife across the UK, take the chance to see some of the less common sites. On the West coast of Scotland there are lots of places where you can take a boat trip to see many kinds of whales. If you prefer dolphins, you can see the most northerly colony of bottlenose dolphins (海豚) in the world just off Inverness in the Moray Firth. Of course it’s likely that you’ll see seals (海豹) and many other animals on these trips too.
Do
The waves of Thurso right in the north of Scotland are just great. If you’re not feeling brave enough to go in the water and prefer to watch from the safety of the shore then there’re several major surf contests held there.
Another very Scottish activity ideal for good weather is “Munro Bagging”. Named after Sir Hugh Munro, the 218 mountains in Scotland over 914m high are called Munros and walkers try to see how many they can climb in a set amount of time.

22. What do we know about Munro Bagging? A. It is very interesting. B. It suits people of all ages. C. It is a challenging activity. D. It was named after a mountain. 23. What can you do in Nardini? A. Watch surf contests. B. Enjoy great ice cream. C. Learn to play the piano. D. Make ice cream by yourself.

It was an autumn morning shortly after my husband and I moved into our first house. Our children were upstairs unpacking, and I was looking out of the window at my father moving around mysteriously on the front lawn. “What are you doing out there?” I called to him.
He looked up, smiling. “I’m making you a surprise.’’ I thought it could be just about anything. When we were kids, he always created something surprising for us. Today, however, Dad would say no more, and caught up in the business of our new life, I eventually forgot about his surprise.
Until one gloomy day the next March when I glanced out of the window, I saw a dot of blue across the yard. I headed outside for a closer look. They were crocuses (番红花) throughout the front lawn—blue, yellow and my favorite pink, with little
