Tonight we are happily ensconced in a lovely B&B in Spean Bridge in the Highland Glens.
We left yesterday from Edinburgh Airport area, bound for Skye, visiting Scone Castle after we lost our way. Beautiful home and grounds, probably the best castle we have visited.
Next stop was Pitlochry for dinner then panic hit as we called dozens of places for a place to stay. Seems all of England is on holiday in Scotland right now but we did find rooms in a small hotel in Kingussie at 10p.m.
Top priority today was getting B&B's for the next four nights.
Highlight of the day was watching the boats travel in the Caledonian locks in Fort Augustus, with the magnificent scenery along the lake drive close second. Tomorrow's plan is Skye, and maybe better weather(rain today). We will be joining all of the other holiday makers, so we do have a back up plan in case of crowds. Still having a grand time!
