Day journey into the Scottish Highlands..

We set off this morning for an excursion to, ultimately, Fort William]

En route..through the coach window

First stop was Waterfalls... amazing.. what they must look like in full spate though!!

A brief stop in Fort William.. where this Bernese Mountain dog was waiting patiently... he was gorgeous..

and next stop the Commando Memorial...

En route now a swing bridge.. we had to wait for it to close

and the locks on the Caledonian Canal - pretty amazing!!

and then a time spent in Fort William.. a pleasant town.. pity it turned so cloudy and grey..

Oh yes, says Ponders, I'm all for Ice Cream!!

and various views (taken from a moving coach) on the way back

tomorrow.. we'll be heading south...
