Highlands: Blair Athol Distillery in Pitlochry

Whiskey is an important part of Scotland. So it would be impossible to visit Scotland without having gone to a whiskey distillery. This is the Blair Athol Distillery in Pitlochry (pit-lock-er-ee) a small town (5500 people or so) in the highlands. Because I injured my ankle I was unable to go in but my friend Leah (who takes great photos!) let me have some of her photos so you could see it.
