Loch Trool

Breakfast at 81 Antrim Road Belfast was dodgy. Could cook scrambled eggs in a glass bowl in the microwave as no pots and pans were provided for the stove. Drove to the Stena dock and travelled on the 11.30am ferry arriving at Cairnyan Scotland around 1.45pm. Saw jellyfish, one turtle and penguins from the ferry window as we neared Scotland. Drove to House O’ Hill at Bargrennan and booked in. Continued on to Loch Trool in the Galloway Forest Park and walked the ten kilometres around the lake in hot (24 degrees) temperatures. Took many photos of the loch and surrounding hills and a deep canyon like burn (stream). Back to the hotel for a dinner including crab claws, venison and lamb rump.Read more
