Black Isle Visit

Spectacular all the way up. I only managed to get a couple of photos, the battery went flat. We stopped for lunch in a place called Fortrose, The Art Gallery Cafe. It was pleasant, clean with good service. Vegetarian option a bit limited, cheese, cheese and more cheese (ploughmans) but what we did get was nicely served and plenty of it. Mr Kathy took the parma ham ciabatta option.
The nursery was a proper nursery that specialises in herbs both culinary and medicinal. It was so quiet, (it's in the middle of nowhere) and we recieved a warm welcome from Duncan the owner. The only thing they sell are plants and seeds, no gifts, coffee or anything else, just a haven of tranquillity. Very Happy

Here is Greenlady when we had a stop on the way, the photos aren't great as I was using my own old camera!



And 2 pictures of the wonderful views.

The nursery sounds lovely Kathy. That's how our local one used to be, but last year it all changed, they extended it and now it's a typical garden centre.

The views look lovely Very Happy

so you got all the way up there and back in one day's visit then

my recollections of the roads up there tell me that that is quite a hike

still lovely though

fife i should imagine is very similar to here topographically s;eaking......
Kathy

It was a long drive but I'm used to it, we drove down to Shropshire and back in a day when we picked up Lloyd's caravan for Coco!

What does "topographically" mean?
nanny

lumps and bumps and hills and valleys

didn't have any in east anglia

you could stand on a beer can and see the whole county
Kathy

Laughing Laughing Ah yes, lots of lumps and bumps in Fife!
