Fort William via Glenfinnan

Scottish porridge for breakfast!

Drove to Armadale and just missed the ferry. Bought tickets and wondered around local craft & pottery shops and clothing shop - Ragamuffin

Ferry to Mallaig. Only about 25 mins but had to leave car. Very windy and rough but ferry was quite big. Cafe in Mallaig for lunch. Plates too small for food!
Train station: The Jacobite waiting while passengers had lunch. Raining quite a bit. Bought postcards at info centre.

Drove through Morar and by Loch Morar. Nice beaches on river to sea. Arisaig and coastal route, Glenfinnan, raining so brief look at monument and Ura??? from a distance.

Saw Neptune Staircase - part of Caledonian canal to Loch L??? (sea)

Fort William B&B, then walked down main st looking for tea and scones. Lots of shops and whisky shop. Found nice scone! Dinner at number 4. OK food.
