Had a lie in on Tuesday morning as the kids were completely buggered from their day Edinburgh, and then went shopping at one the the famous Outlet Malls in Livingston(between Glasgow and Edinburgh), where Chris managed to but himself a PSP and some games. Got home early and had a roast lamb dinner.
On Wednesday we set off early for Inverness, where we are staying tonight. It took the whole day to get here (only about 370km/230miles). Stppoed a coupel of times along Loch Lomond to enjoy scenery, and then ended up in Fort William at around midday. Did some more shopping and had a wander around the town and then headed off to a picnic spot about 10 miles out for lunch with a view of Glen Nevis(some people call it Ben Nevis). Next stop was Urquhart Castle a ruined castle last inhabited by the Grant Clan about 300 years ago for a bit of exploring. After that we drove off to Inverness where we has a walk around the city - unfortunately no shopping as we arrived at about 17h30 when the city centre was closing down. We then checked in at our hotel, and were pleasantly surprised to find a beautiful pub (Snow Goose) across the road from our hotel. Had an excellent dinner there and setting of for a distillery tour tomorrow morning.
