Day 17: Loch Ness - Inverness
September 20th, 2005What a difference a day makes. Yesterday we were riding a cold, very wet 45 miles alongside Loch Lochy and Loch Ness. Ben Nevis was invisible through the fog, and to paraphrase James, words could not express the extent of our wetness.
Today, the sun shone on the Great Glen, and our 26-mile run along Loch Ness to Inverness could not have been more pleasant. Upon arrival, we were treated to a large, well-earned lunch at Pizza Express by my parents. Lunch was followed closely by afternoon tea – clearly their priorities are similar to ours. Later, we had dinner, and thus our ‘rest day’ was complete. We also nearly visited Inverness castle, but luckily we didn’t, as it looks rubbish.
