I was with a number of friends this past weekend whom had taken a Father & Son trip to Scotland last fall. They were telling me how much they enjoyed the experience and camaraderie. One story, told by a gentleman who has been extremely successful in business was wonderfully simple and cut at the heart of these generational trips.
Having paid for the land cost and airfare for his son, the father was having a conversation with his 26 year old, gainfully employed offspring prior to the trip about what his thoughts were on expenses during the trip. Father makes some suggestions on who should cover what expenses and what may be appropriate for junior to cover.

Royal Golf Hotel
At the recent Golf Tourism Scotland awards ceremony, The Royal Golf Hotel in Dornoch was named the ‘Hotel of the Year’ in the large hotel category. After some extensive refurbishment and under new ownership, the hotel re-opened in April 2010. Overlooking the first tee at Royal Dornoch Golf Club, the hotel is ideally located for golf in the Highlands. Royal Dornoch, Brora, Tain, Golspie, Castle Stuart, and Nairn are all within striking distance and all come highly recommended. Click here for more information.
