Today’s our last full day together before I’m left to my own devices… photography, painting, crochet and swimming are all on my list. I’m looking forward to pleasing myself, although I’m sure I’ll also be looking forward to John getting back after 3 nights alone!


We had a walk uphill through woodland to visit the Falls of Foyers, which were more impressive than we expected, dropping deep into the gorge below.


Wild flowers carpeted the woodland floor… primroses, wood anemones, celandines, violets, wild garlic and bluebells… beautiful! I’ll be back with my camera over the weekend!


At the far end of our walk, we stopped to visit Cameron’s Tea Rooms where we had delicious cakes and coffees. I spent a long time watching the highland coos, hoping they would come close enough for me to photograph their portraits, but they stubbornly remained at the far side of the field!


Back at the campsite, it was fairly warm and the bay by the site was sheltered from the wind, so I decided to be brave and swim in Loch Ness. I was pleased that John chose to join me… extra brave of him because he’s less used to cold water and, wow, it was freezing! We didn’t see any signs of Nessie, thankfully!


Showered and changed, we’re out for dinner. We really are treating ourselves today! ☺️
