The Highlands
... lol
After Loch Ness, we had the long drive back to Edinburgh. By now it was about 430 and we were due back by 8. There were a few stops here and there, but at this point the sun was setting and I was more engulfed in the Scottish History our tour guide Allen was telling us. He was fantastic, not only was he our driver, he told us crazy stories along the way and his mum even met up with us in the highlands and gave us shortbread (which is delicious in Scotland ...

Distance covered today 13.5 miles
Distance covered in 2012 421.7 miles
Total distance covered 616.1 miles
