Hi Bob, some good looking walks there, don't forget Incheon Falls and onto Wades Road when you are at Bunree, we did it about 6 weeks ago, really hot (sorry about that) stopped halfway up Wades Road to paddle by the bridge it was heaven. we also went on through Glenn Reigh (think that was how it was spelt) and saw the wild "Hairy Moos"

Ooh, thank you Bob. I thoroughly enjoyed that. Great waterfalls, shame about the weather though. I noticed Poppy's paws were black, and then moments later, so was all of her undercarriage! Still, it didn't seem to bother her, she was still eager to carry on! Good job you had the motorhome with you, so you could get changed and warm up, and Jenny could have a lay down, instead of being cooped up in a car while you went to the falls. That bit when you were parked up by the water, in Glen Nevis, I noticed the water was grey under the cloudy bit of the sky, and blue where there was a break in the clouds. I don't think I've ever seen such a marked difference in the colour of water before, especially as it was almost like there was a dividing line between the two colours. The town looks nice too. Hope the Smidge has been working.

Yes the mud didn't seem to slow her down at all. That is the great thing about a motorhome you can get dry and changed, warm and fed in minutes, unlike in a car.

Great video, again. When I mentioned the lost valley and glen nevis I thought you was taking the car. With the car you could have driven to the end of the road were there is limited parking and access to the waterfalls is easier if my memory serves me well. Thinking back it was 28 years ago next month and we had lots of rain but I always wear gortex. It rained most of the week so did not manage much rock climbing. We have stayed at red squirrel on the old glencoe road and glen nevis. The Ben can be done in 5 hours if you are fit and mad lol. We did the three peaks in 23 hours 50 minutes - up and down then a heart breakfast somewhere in Wales

Thank you for taking us down one of our favourite Glens , I wish we had been there though because we could have told you where to walk to. You walked further than you needed. When you reached that wooden bridge ( Paddy's bridge) you had reached the second falls. They flow under the bridge. Then if you had wanted to see the water slide coming down from Ben Nevis you needed to cross the bridge and turn right then follow the road to it's end. You could see the water slide from where you were on that rough path by the river ;D Also just to mention we were there back in May and had a real treat when we had a short wander from the visitor centre we saw 6 stags amongst the bluebells. Where you parked instead of turning to walk to the visitor centre if you had of gone to the left there is a small wooded area I think it is called the contemplation area ? That is where we saw them ;D We have enjoyed your trip to Scotland so far , we do not own a camper van but have visited Scotland twice a year for over 20 yrs now .Thanks again and we are looking forward to the following videos :D Teddy
