Scotland national emblem

Having been here so many times ,I am embarassed to say that I have not actually seen the Scottish National Symbol the Thistle. Besides tartan,blowpipes and kilts, the Thistle is perhaps one of the most identifiable symbols of all things Scottish. Funny, Thistle is actually a humble weed, commonly found in Scotland. For this trip, I vowed to myself that I should try to spot one this time around. Surprisingly, I did find one, during my shopping trip in Livingstone..

Ah, what a great feeling! :)

Here's a pic that I captured!
