Nessie
... The Loch was perfectly flat and it is very dark in color, the gentleman doing the guide talk said this was because of the stain from bracken etc that washes into it, apparently visibility is only about 3 meters.

Still had an interesting boat ride with magnificent scenery and well, been there done it now.later in the evening back at the Abbey ...
Loch Ness

Especially as they don't put other people in your cabin, so I had one all to myself ...
Day 4 - Invernarnan to Kingshouse - (21'ish miles)
... and head out on to the moorland, I stop and have some lunch. Today I didn't gets packed lunch so I am eating the cheese, chorizo, oatcakes and the leftovers that I have been carrying around for so long. It makes quite a welcome change from a sandwich.
