My faith in Grayline Tours was re-kindled today. We took a coach tour to Loch Ness, then up to Inverness and back. Thank you Graham. Photos are being flickred right now. I warn you, I am uploading more than 300 right now.

It was an early start to the day. We headed over to a local hotel where our pickup was supposed to happen. There was some kind of accident on the motor way causing our ride to not turn up. We caught a taxi to a second pickup point where our journey began.

The lowlands in Scotland are gentle rolling hills with many sheep, cattle, and fields of crops. Quite idyllic. When you start coming up into the highlands, the land changes entirely. It becomes quite harsh and very hilly/rocky making farming impossible. We saw lots of farm animals, but no crops until the land became so treacherous to make it impossible for animals to be bred either.
