What an excellent way to spend a day.... woke up on Saturday with nothing to do (apart from the list my wife left for me) so decided just to go for a drive. Now be completely honest, if it wasn't for a shoulder injury I probably would have used the bike...
Anyway, chucked the camera into the car and set off, 250 mile round trip, averaging 45 mpg, went to Oban and back....
Clear sky and bright sunshine, but about 6 deg C. Absolutely stunning scenery, been there many times before but I still want to stop every 5 miles and look.
Traffic was light, was caught behind a bus at one point who indicated left at the first opportunity to signal that it was safe to pass.
Passed the Connel bridge, with water like glass below it! Anyone who knows this bridge will tell you the water is always turbulent below it, around every corner was a picture postcard view. On the way home the sun was setting and the sky took on a pink hue.
Now I know I may have offended a few enviro-mentalists but what a way to spend a few hours...
