2012 PRINCESS - CAPE TOWN TO DOVER
on hasbeen's travel map.
HEADING NORTH FROM YORK
TO INVERNESS - VERY COLD & NONE TOO HOSPITABLE A PLACE.
THIS IS THE ONLY PHOTO I TOOK BEFORE GETTING BACK ON THE TRAIN & GOING FURTHER NORTH...
INTO THURSO & THE MOST NORTHERN POINT OF MAINLAND SCOTLAND CAN BE SEEN IN THE DISTANCE & IT IS NOT JOHN O'GROATS
QUITE PRETTY BUT COLD & YOU NEED A WOOLY ON...
I DID NOT LINGER HERE TOO LONG...
THIS IS THE RAILWAY BUFFERS AT THE END OF THE LINE..
WHISKEY BARRELS...
AND OIL RIGS - SCOTLAND'S INCOME STREAMS
BACK TO INVERNESS & THE WEATHER HAS IMPROVED A TAD & THE PLACE LOOKS NICER.
A NICE LITTLE BUS RIDE ALONG LOCH NESS TO URQUHART CASTLE - WHICH WAS CLOSING JUST AS I GOT THERE
A YOUNG AMERICAN GUY WAS WAITING WITH ME FOR THE BUS WHICH WAS A LONG TIME COMING - DO WE HAVE TIME TO STOP IN?
WELL OK - YOU TWISTED MY ARM...
BACK TO THE PLEASANT HOTEL IN INVERNESS...
AND ANOTHER TRAIN OUT OF SCOTLAND...
HEADING BACK TO ENGLAND...
