    Day 5. Tyndrum to Inveroran

    August 2, 2017 in Scotland ⋅ 🌧 14 °C

    The first thing Shirl said this morning was "I have decided on the cruise I want to take" I wondered if there was a doctor in the village. "A cruise on the Brisbane ferry" Whew!!!
    The good news continued as the Rain God was taking a sickie until 3pm. He does have a soft side.
    After breakfast we slowly climb out of Tyndrum on an 18th century road. They had a good infrastructure programme in those days. The sun eventually came out and we had a lovely easy stroll to the Bridge of Orchy. Today,s walk was what we imagined both Scottish walks would be like.
    After indulging in a cream tea we walked a further 5 kms to Invernan. We said our goodbyes to the two young girls( Emily and Agat) both aged 17. Two very capable young ladies.
    Our day finished at 1-45 and after showering we adjourned to the walkers bar where we spent an agreeable few hours talking to Theo and Jan, two young French.
    It started to rain at 3pm as per the forecast. We hope for a fine day tomorrow as we have a 16kms walk over the desolate Rannoch Moor.
