Reece (16), Ashleigh (13), Elaine (Mum) & George (Dad)

Arrived on Sat. after a long delay in traffic, we got a great welcome. Went into Fort William to the Indian Garden, the Korma is well recommended. Hope it is sunny tomorrow...............

Spent today in Inverary, went to the , kids loved it, they were enlightened on how hard times were back then and how easy it is today. We went on the dodgems (reliving my youth) and then tried the Fish & chip shop and my god it was good, the fish was HUGE!!!!!
It rained all day, however it didn't stop us ahving a great day out.

Good morning its Monday its dry but grey, we are planning on doing some archery and clay pigeon shooting, will let you know how it went later.....
WOW I am the greatest ha ha well the archery was great, it was pouring with rain and we were all bitten silly with midges but we had a laugh. I (Mum) got the highest score of 34 I am soooo good!!!!
Not sure whats on the agenda for tomorrow, I'll be back.....

WOW that was great, we went into Kinlochleven to the climbing wall, kids loved it, we got some great photos.. www.ice-factor.co.uk
Then we went to the waterfalls in Inchree, it was a gorgeous day. It was a bit tiring for me(am no spring chicken!)My step daughter had an idea to walk home from there so George (Dad) took the car and Me (Mum), Reece & Ashleigh walked. We ahd walked for about 1hr & 50 mins, only 1 1/2 miles from home when George picked us up, as Ashleigh had done something to her hip. It was 7 miles but it felt like 70 (ha ha) going up the Nevis Range tomorrow.....

Hi back again, what a fantastic time we had at the Nevis range, it was a bit dull when we got up there. We went on the open chair and it was chilly! After a nice hot plate of soup(mmm)we heat up and we are off on the trail to the top of the mountain.
The weather improved, very relieved as me and Reece had shorts on!!! Got some great photos! www.nevisrange.co.uk
Home now to put feet up and relax, not sure whats on the agenda tomorrow, getting sad as its nearing time to go home to sunny Fife, however we are not going home, we are extending our hols till next Tues. We decided to head up to Wick for a few days got "family" there.

We went to Fort William today to get soem gifts and souvenirs, the market was on in the High Street. Had a few tasters and the kids got the biggest candy floss I've ever seen. We then went for a few laps on the go karts. My arms are sore now had to go on twice to get revenge but it never worked. www.racewaykartingfortwilliam.co.uk/
If the midges weren't so darn annoying we'd be playing badminton or tennis but I am fed up getten bitten alive. tomorrow we are meant to bedoing General Wades Walk, hopefully the weather will be dry. Speak to you then.......

Well our last day ended with a blast, we went into Fort William for some last minute shopping, then went to the caravan park at Loch Linnhe. My friend was up with her husband as he had some work here, so we went for a cuppa and a browse. It was really nice, after her hubby turned up we went to Fort William to the Ben Nevis Bar for our dinner www.ben-nevis-inn.co.uk. We all had steak except Reece who had fish, it was really good. We then went back to Ann's caravan and played board games till 11pm. Now we ahve packed cases and tidied up we are off to sleep for the last time here!

Its been fantastic, Ian & Sharon were extremely nice, we will definetly be back. My sister and her daughter and my mum may be coming up next time too!!! www.glencoeselfcatering.co.uk

From a very happy family who hope to be back some day soon!!!
