From Fort William



After discovering Lochness we drove down to Fort William and stayed there for a couple of nights:)
The "Harry Potter" train runs there however, since it was a Sunday and we wanted to make the most of the trip we decided to drive along the railroad.

So Fort William to Morar... what a beautiful drive, roads twists and turns just like in a movie:)
Went for a small hike around Morar and visited the white beach and walked along side the Loch Morar, where apparently Nessies cousin lives... ya you guessed it we did not find him either:(

Went back to Fort William for a Chipper Supper... nothing special but still was good fun.

The following day we drove from Fort William to Mallaig and caught the ferry to the Isle of Skye:)



Just as we arrived we decided to check out the:

Clan MacDonald heritage:) IT WAS FANTASTIC:) Had a great walk around.


We found a wonderful B&B on our way to Elgol... this tiny village on Skye. There is this wee lighthouse there which is amazing. The road there was another story... tiny road covered with sheep and cows:)


We saw the sun set there... There are lots of boat trips that you can take from there to see a few more lochs and the local fauna, although we did not have enough time to go on a boat trip as we were going to start heading north:)
