We moved on from the OCD controlled spean bridge guest this morning after a lighter than usual breakfast, Collecting our shoes from the neatly rearranged rows that occurred overnight... And went straight up the hill out of town, which is not always the best start to the day, but it was actually fine, and we quickly got on to the roads through the great Glen... Fantastic scenery again today..
We bumped into a few other people doing the end-to-end trip like us... A few were doing 112 miles today...!.. But they had someone else carrying their bags... Cheaters...!.. Later, as we came near Urquhart castle we bumped into rich, also on the end-to-end, but doing it in 10 days, on his own, and unsupported...!.. Here's a few photos of us near Urquhart castle and with rich...
He's a nice guy, and is doing a much harder version of the journey than we are...!
For pre-dinner appetisers we had deep-fried battered black pudding and haggis...!... It just had to be done...!.. Before a proper Scottish afternoon tea set with some massive homemade scones.. Gorgeous...!
Tomorrow we are off to Lairg... It's another 50 miles, with a few hills in the middle, but should be fine... We are now just hoping for a tailwind on the last day, as a headwind would be really hard.. It's not looking good for that so far...
