Road to Inverness

 Day 30 Wednesday 15th May

Gorgeous day again as we said goodbye to Ullapool. 










We are heading to Inverness today.







We could see the dam on loch Glascarnoch.










We passed Loch Garve


Just after we spotted a sign for Rogie Falls so we decided to stop and explore. Obviously just me and Dex exploring as John can’t walk far bless him. 





There was a suspension bridge across the river and I was really proud of Dex as he didn’t seem bothered crossing it at all. 



Fantastic falls!











Dex had a paddle












We set off again and were soon crossing the bridge at Inverness.






We carried on to Culloden Moor to a Caravan and Motorhome site we had booked there. Dex and I went for a walk in the woods.



This wasn’t the most picturesque site but the sun was shining and it was quiet and peaceful. ☺️ 



A blackbird came to sing to us.

 Sunday 18th August and Monday 19th August Days 1 & 2. Pleased to report we are starting the next part of our Scottish tour 😍 John is much better and Tekki has had a new clutch fitted and new brakes so we are good to go! Our first night was at a site just outside Stafford. Very quiet and good for an overnight stay.  The boys were happy watching the cricket 🤣 On Monday we set off to Penrith and found a site near a lovely village called Kirkoswald.  The site was at Mains farm. It was a lovely location and had an honesty shop which was great.  The facilities weren’t so great 🤣 We decided to walk Dex into the village about a mile away. The village was lovely with lots of lovely old buildings. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirkoswald,_South_Ayrshire We found a pub open, the Fetherston Arms. Stopped for a quick pint and a chat with the locals who were really friendly and welcoming. Dex met a young cockerpoo called Lola. Afterwards we walked back and I made chicken...

 Day 29 Tuesday 14th May John’s hip was still really hurting and he was struggling so much I decided to try and get him seen by a doctor. I was really lucky and he got an appointment for 10am so we drove into Ullapool.  On the way we could see the tall ship in the harbour. Next to the medical practice was the Highland Stone pottery shop so I popped in for a look around whilst John was seeing the doctor. So unfortunately John has trapped his sciatic nerve and also has lumbago as his back keeps going into spasms due to the pain. He will need physio and it will take time so we are going to slowly head home. Inverness for 2 nights then a few stop offs on the way back. We can start again once he’s fully recovered. It’s a real shame but at least we have a diagnosis now and it’s silly carrying on when he’s in so much pain.  We headed into Ullapool and went for a slap up seafood lunch at the Seaforth restaurant. It was delicious 😋  I had scallops to start and John had Culle...
