I Remain BAFFLED!

This is the Flag of Scotland. So is it a country, or what? and what does the Prince of Wales have to do with it?! I was looking for Golf Courses for our Family Golf Tournament. One of the places I was researching was in Scotland. I always thought that Scotland was its' own Sovereign Country, am I wrong? Scotland is part of Great Britain?....anyway, looks like the best place for the Golf Tourney is the Nine Hole Course in Skippack. Near Rt 73 & Rt 363.

Scotland is a Country that is part of the United Kingdom. It is on the north of the island of Great Britain. Scotland shares a border with England. Prince Charles now holds the title "Prince of Wales" due to the fact he will become ruler of Great Britain when the current Queen departs this earthly existence.

So, Scotland is to the UK as Puerto Rico is to the US? is that right? I always thought Scotland was part of Ireland...Timmy told us that he met people in Ireland that said our forefathers were Sheep rustlers from Scotland! go figure...

PS...I remain Baffled over the whole Prince of Wales/Scotland/sheepherder thing...but I am looking forward to the "McKendry Handicap Golf Tournament" in Worcester, just above Rt 363, off of Rt 73!
