No Sleep Till Loch Ness

Waking up this morning it was still absolutely freezing outside. It pretty much rained all night long, so we were glad to see that it was only 3 degrees outside and not 3 degrees and raining...


With things looking up we headed to the train station and saw this...


Yes that's right we continue to have awesome luck with trains. Apparently there was a landslide last week and we would have to take a bus from somewhere called Aviemore to Inverness. Yippee!

So we hopped on the train and Mom was stoked to see the countryside...


It's beautiful, but did I mention it's freaking cold...


Despite the cold though, you have to stop and appreciate it all, it's just gorgeous here...


Right Dad. Dad? Hellooooo...


We got to Aviemore and hopped on the bus and actually made it to Inverness with plenty of time to catch our boat to Loch Ness. insert gay joke here...


We tried to brave it outside as long as we could...


Mom and Dad were blown away by the Loch...


And can you blame them...


It's just a place that forces you to slow down a little and take in the beauty around you...


This is Urquhart Castle, hi it's really old...


And still freakin cold...


I'm the Queen of the World! Shut it, you try and think of something witty...


It's been a blast getting to spend time with the folks...


They are having a blast too...


So much so they wound up in the pokey...


And I clearly over did it cuz on the ride home, this happened...


Welp, what are you gonna do. After we got back to the hotel and relaxed for a while, we walked around Inverness for a bit...


That is the river Ness, which runs through the whole city...


And then we headed off to grab a bite...


And a drink of course. Dad got steak with haggis, uhm yeah no, while Mom and I had Highland Scottish Beef, mmmm...


Its an early night because we are heading up to the Isle of Skye in the morning...


Night night!
