Fort William
















This morning we left for Fort William. We intended to have a coffee at Poppy's garden Centre near Connal. The food loooked lovely, but despite the fact there were only 3 tables occupied, no one served us. One waitress was chattin to the folk at the table beside us, while the other just disappeared. As we upped and left after waiting and waiting, they tried to apologise, each saying the thought the other was dealing with us.

We headed across the Connel Bridge, which was originally a railway bridge. Then it was on through places like Appin, to the Bridge at Ballachulish, and then on into Fort William.
It was a scenic and enjoyable journey, with little traffic.

We spent a couple of hours there and then headed back along the same route. We stopped for a coffee and a bun near Ballachulish, and then stopped later to take photos of Castle Stalker.

We went on past the holiday house to have a pub meal at a nearby pub. It was ok, but not the cleanest pub I have been in.
