message de Kieran - Exploring Scotland

In a remote village on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland, stands the Whale Bone Arch—a quirky landmark with a fascinating backstory. Back in 1920, a massive blue whale washed ashore, and the locals took matters into their own hands, turning the blubber into various products. Postmaster Murdo Morrison even repurposed the whale's jawbone as an arch outside his home, complete with a harpoon that caused a bit of chaos. It's now a beloved piece of local lore, standing tall and proud for over a century.
