Which is why I'm commenting on a blog you published over a year ago!<br /><br />I know that road down the side of Loch Arkaig only too well. On many visits to the area 30+ years ago I used to think nothing of zooming all the way to the end in a little Ford Fiesta. Think that is no longer possible from looking at Google maps - looks like lots of fences and new builds ...<br /><br />Fast forward a few years to the first time I took husband to the area. I insisted we were going down the side of the loch ... I think we managed about 8 miles before jointly agreeing that all nerves were so frayed we would stop at the next beach-like area! That was in a regular estate car, not sure I’d try it these days in anything larger :-)<br /><br />Hope you are all well, look forward to catching up with the Sarek posts.<br /><br />Bag End Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190496929132717769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5656090127491069947.post-10230676531353033472016-06-14T20:43:47.869+01:002016-06-14T20:43:47.869+01:00Thanks Dawn.

Remember once causing much excitement in a hostel in Portree when I booked in after being out in foul weather all day. Was in a very wet and soggy state and a pool of water was flowing from my rucksack across the dormitory floor.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09839157927650251268noreply@blogger.com
