A
beautiful running path outside our hotel along the River Ness
with lovely scenery to start
(or end) the day |
|
|
|
|
Many bridges span the river.
Some carry traffic |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Others are for pedestrians
and bicylists only |
|
|
|
|
A local pub explained the legend of the bridges
 |
|
The river is low because Scotland is experiencing
a serious drought |
An excellent location for a running store |
|
|
From the city of Inverness we travelled
by bus to the Isle of Skye, observing the scenery along the way |
This
is Loch Ness - the legendary home of the mythical "Nessie" creature |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Scotland is dotted with castle ruins |
|
|
|
And a history of conflict among
clans and kingdoms |
|
|
Further down the road a brief stop
to view Eilean Donan Castle
|
|
|
On the return trip from the Isle
of Skye, we stopped briefly again for more photos |
|
|
|
|
And a different perspective
