Happy Birthday Pat
It didn't come as a shock to us so it shouldn't come as a shock to you...it rained on us today and sometimes quite hard although we did have some periods of sun.
As last nights B&B is about 4 road miles from the Great Glen Way they took us back to where we left the trail yesterday. The were six of in the car so it was quite tight. It had rained during breakfast but had stopped by the time we got back to the trail; however, that was short lived.
The route today took us mainly along the west shore of Loch Lochy. At times due to very low cloud cover, wind and rain we could barely see the lake. The track today was some trail through extremely lush forest, blacktop and Scotland Forest roads which are mainly dirt and gravel. All in all they were all in very good condition and Peg was able to hike without having to watch every step.
We crossed the lock at Laggan Locks and proceeded about another mile on the Way before we had to head back in the direction we came from for about 1/3 mile on a very busy road with almost no shoulder and very heavy traffic. We were very happy to catch site of Forest Lodge B&B, our home for the evening.
The closest restaurant is about a two mile hike down the highway but fortunately the B&B will drive us there and the restaurant will bring us back.
We are having a grand time!
