Inverness…

We’ve been in Inverness for the last two days, taking a bit of a break from all the walking we did over the past week (George has a pretty big blister on his heel…)The last day of our hike we passed several police officers out in the woods about 7 km from Inverness, taping off obscure sections. It seems there was a female hiker attacked on the route two days before we arrived, and she’s in the hospital. It was a little alarming, but we were too tired to react too much.
Two days of walking down…

Hey!
We’ve been walking the Great Glen for two days, and I currently haven’t got a clue where I am. We’re very tired (and by ‘we’ I mean George…) and we’re staying at a lovely youth hostel that was at some point in time a crofter’s house. I believe we’re in Laggan, at the bottom of Loch Oick. We camped at Gairlocky last night.

We did a lot of sightseeing & preparations today. I managed to get a swim in at the local recreation center – I was foolish enough to try the door at 7:10 AM, when one of the regulars was standing beside it, only to be met with the comment ‘Do you think I’d be standing here if it was open?’ It reminded me of my Grandpa.

We took the train through Glen Coe today. Even though it was a little over cast the scenery was still worth staying awake for. We were pretty tired, as we were out last night and ran into a St. FXU grad who now lives in Glasgow, and teaches bagpipes at the College of Piping. She had just been in Fife performing in the Highland Games there.
