Possible snow - BBC weather reports tend to exaggerate somewhat. Weather has been very mild.
Travelled the lenght of Loch Lomond - "I'll take the high road, and you take the low road" or something like that. met a lone piper at Glencoe where the Campbells massacred the MacDonalds and then passed through Fort William at the base of Ben Nevis - Britain's highest Ben but today Ben had his hat on.
Passed by Loch Lochy, Loch Oich and finally Loch Ness. NO NESSIE but there was that glimpse through the trees at the famous Urquhart castle.
Passed through Inverness and then dashed across the battlefield of Culloden - late to the bus. Culloden was the last battle on British soil or Scottish soil depends on who you are talking to.
After arriving at our hotel at Aviemore (a ski resort in winter), went to the sheepdogs in the afternoon. John hand-sheared a sheep. A few "wee grams" at the local - everyone was quite merry.
