A Scottish Welcome

Prop plane dipping into green fields, walking across a windswept tarmac, a chatty customs agent, being met by a car rental agent who calls out our name... Where else than the tiny International Airport in Inverness, Scotland?

Deeply jet lagged we navigated the wrong side of the road, at least where there actually were 2 lanes, and found our way on the south side of Loch Ness to Whitebridge Hotel.

Warm sunshine bathed the hills around us - everyone informing us that we had come in on the last day of a heat wave (26C) but assuring us that by morning we would be back to good old Scottish weather.

  1. So beautiful. I am in the process of relistening to the audio book series of the Outlander. I have been spending a lot of time imagining the Highlands.
