#4 Night at Callanish -
It’s only been about 5,000 years since the folk at Callanish erected these stones. And unlike the more famous upstart at Stonehenge, the Callanish Stones on the Isle of Lewis are freely open — nothing to stop you from sitting amongst these giants late into a Scottish summer evening, letting the stars swirl above as you ponder time and immortality. If you should nod off, the first birdsong on the morning’s breeze will probably wake you at 4:00 AM. You might think these stones are ancient, but nothing compared to the rock from which they are hewn: Lewesian Gneiss that is, over 3 billion years old, forged in Earth’s furnace time and again to layer them with eternity. If old stuff doesn’t appeal to you, something almost entirely modern is just down the road: Carloway Broch, an iron age tower house only about 2,000 years old. #islandobsession #scotland
