Question
What can my parents expect whil traveling Scotland during the month of May ?

Answer
Chuck,Spring is a fine time to travel in Scotland. By May the weather settles down and you spend excellent days touring around.  Make sure though, to tell them to bring long sleeved shirts or tops and remind them that they could encounter all four seasons in a day in Scotland.  
 In July Scotland will be crowded with tourists for the Gathering in Holyrood Park so they will be beating the crowd! I am sure they will have the time of their life!

 Thanks for the question.
