We left our hotel in Beauly this morning and drove through Dingwall and Inverness and headed towards Glasgow. The scenery once again was spectacular, going from tree covered mountains to mountains covered in snow. We drove through the beautiful town of Pitlochry, where we had the best Hot Chocolate we have ever had!!!! We continued down the motorway for another hour or so to Falkirk to see the "Falkirk Wheel" which is an incredible piece of engineering. It is a system of moving barges from one canal to another without using a lock. Hopefully we have some footage on video.....
After seeing the wheel in operation, we found our hotel and checked, and then drove into Glasgow where we spent the remainder of the afternoon. Tomorrow we will travel to Stranraer, where we will catch the ferry to Belfast. The trip will take about 3hours, of hopefully smooth sailing!!!!
Thanks to all who have been sending us messages, we love to hear from you, either by email or adding a post.

  1. Hello John and Lynne, Just checking in before heading up to Ingleburn. We have organised a new mattress for Mummy to be delivered this afternoon. Will take a print of your blog for Frank. Keep up those relaxing baths and keep warm. Touring is like a marathon so you have to pace yourself. Love Steph.
