We took the bus from Inverness to our hotel. Here you can see the hotel in the distance on the other side of the bridge where the bus stop was.
| We begin walking to the hotel.
| | We took this path from the road that lead directly to the hotel.
|
It was a nice walk. We saw BEAUTIFUL Scottish Thistle growing along with heather.

| It never really rained but for only about 10 minutes of our walk. Here Dennis takes a photo of Candy next to the thistle.

Thistle up close. FYI.. this is the same kind of thistle the Vikings stepped on centuries before when they tried to invade Scotland.

| | We had a great view of Eilean Donan Castle from our room's window.

Sorry, this might be a little dark. Here is a view of the castle at night (lit up). Believe me, IT WAS BREATHTAKING!
| Here we are leaving the next morning to go to the bus. We will then go back to Glasgow.
| This is a small cafe where we picked up some food to take on the bus. This cafe is right down the street from the castle. It had very good food too.
