WOW! I can't believe that I am home and everything is OVER! I still want to blog about where I went and what I did. I think it will take me a while though. So back to Scotland...
Bill, our awesome driver, took us from Inverness down to Blackford. We had a wonderful drive and stopped at some gorgeous places. The thing I loved about having Bill as our driver and tour guide was that he knew about EVERYTHING! He answered every question we had. He also took us to the coolest places that no one really knows about. They are not just the touristy areas, they are the small towns and the little things, and I love that. We of course did the touristy sites as well, but we got the best of both worlds!
We stayed in Blackford for a few days at Kenna's (Erin's sister). It was soo nice of her and her husband to let us come and stay. Their home used be the the bank and it's a pretty SWEET house. It is very big and such a fun place!
Our drive to Blackford...
We made a stop at a beautiful lookout point over Loch Carron
We stopped at a cute fisherman's town called Plockton. It was a very small town with one main street with little shops. It had many fishing boats, you can see some in this picture
We walked over the bridge to Isle of Skye
We stopped at the Ilean Donan castle (one of the most photographed castles). There was a bagpiper out in front and it was so cool! Oh, and they had fabulous carrot cake!
Another stop along the way was a beautiful mountainas area (that's basically all of Scotland!) called Glencoe. We didn't stop for long, just enough time to eat some dry frosted flakes and stretch from being in the car so long.
At the end of this day we arrived at Kennas to a delicious BBQ :)
