SCOTLAND AND SKYE HOLIDAY MONDAY 15 MAY 2023

A rainy Sunday night, we woke to find the sky light had leaked again! Roy has spent hours on fixing this leak. One wet end of the cushion, nothing we can do about it while away but Roy decided that we would alter the position of the van as when at home in the drive it didn't leak. We are now walking about with a list to starboard!, like being on the boat again!

 The rain eased by 11, we drove to Glencoe and hiked the four and half mile up and back walk up to the Lost Valley between two of the three Sisters. All uphill  then all downhill! The lost valley is a hidden large flat ice- flattened valley, in times past, stolen cattle were hidden here and was also a place of refuge after the infamous Massacre of Glencoe. A superb walk with very few sprinkles.


                                    THE PATH GOES BETWEEN THE TWO SISTERS


                                                START OF WALK





                                        ROY CROSSING THE RIVER


                                                                    ALMOST UP!


                                        THE LSOT VALLEY IN THE BACKGROUND


                                        LUNCH IN THE LOST VALLEY


                                        BACK DOWN


                                                THE THREE SISTERS



                                                      END OF A LOVELY WALK
