Tourist Guide

Applecross to Torridon via Shieldaig Road. Definitely the scenic route. The fifty or so miles from Lochcarron over the Bealach Na Ba and up to Torridon via Shieldaig on a bicycle in February is not for the faint hearted. Looking ENE to the Torridonian Mountain Range.

It was great to have a washing machine. Didn’t notice that the dryer was out the door and in its own room until I’d already dried everything by hanging it around the apartment. Oops!
