After a fabulous run up round Glasgow and west of Loch Lomond, we pushed on over Rannoch Moor, pausing for diesel in Tyndrum and dinner at the King's House Hotel in Glencoe. Their venison casserole was excellent and the utterly wicked raspberries and cream confection called cranachan snared us afterwards. We're now parked in the land of giants; Munros all around, with Buachaill Etive Mor, Buachaill Etive Beag, Bidean nam Bian and Meal Mor all spread in front and more peaks behind! Stunning views.
The Kite Wagon is doing marvels, handling the desperately narrow roads around Tarbert and Ardlui with aplomb and fairly storming the high passes over Rannoch and into Glencoe.a greater change in geography from her previous life in Buckinghamshire would be hard to imagine!
Tomorrow we hope for an early start, to get through Fort William early, pause to pay respects at the Commando Memorial in Spean Bridge around breakfast and then on up the Great Glen for Inchnadamph.
