After an incredible few days on Skye, Lai and I headed north, with a quick stop at Eilean Donan. The castle was as beautiful as anticipated, albeit swarmed with tourists (such as ourselves). After Eilean Donan we drove to Gairloch where we spent a night in a beautiful hotel (but infested with bats). The weather wasn't great, as is common on the West Coast of Scotland, so we enjoyed a night in after dinner. The next day, we continued our drive to Ullapool, a quaint fishing town that serves as a ferry hub for most of the highlands. We ate fish 'n chips (again) and then drove east to Inverness, the capital of the highlands.
