Let's wrap this up & take a picture of this old wreck we've heard so much about, Old Boat of Caol.

At only 15 minutes long, this is a rather short video to finish off what we are calling 'phase 2' of this adventure. If you're wondering, Phase 1 was our journey to and around the Cairngorms and Phase 2 being the West Coast and escorting Claire's dad around Scotland.
In this vid, you get a glimpse of where we end up next and folks, it turns out it is a great place!

Really enjoyed the video, brought back great memories. The black and white shot stood out but all were amazing. As a newcomer to your channel just working through your Scandinavian adventure. The Atlantic Way is something else.Keep the adventures coming , they put a smile on my face. 😊

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Incredibly kind comment Alan, thank you. Ooow, the Scandinavia adventure was a while ago now; we need to go back and film it again lol, our early youtube days. Yes, the Atlantic Way is amazing and the whole area around there is superb and is in complete contrast to the landscapes of the fjords...amazing and beautiful place. Glad the vids put a smile on your face, we truly appreciate your kind words. All the very best, Tony and Claire. 👍🍻❤️🚐

So sad about Barry 😢 (NEXT WEEKS VLOG GUESS THE NAME) 😂😂👍👍👍

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Haha, thanks Brian for your kind words of sympathy, Barry was a great companion, however, he had a lot of internal issues after 4 years of rubbish diet! 🤔😭😜

[@chrisdavison2022]

All your talking of camera setting, filters etc has me bamboozled!!!! 😆🙈

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Haha, hi there Chris. Yep, definitely a video more for the photographers that watch us lol. 👍. Thanks for watching, even when it did bamboozle you🤣👍❤️🚐📷

[@geoffhughes453]

Hi guys. Really enjoyed this vid. Great location on the Loch down by the boat, nice set of pics from your time there. Hope you had a good time on Mull. Take care guys.

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there Geoff, glad to hear that you enjoyed it buddy. Yes, definitely worth a visit down by the Loch and the locks. We've passed them many times and never had the weather to stop; we got lucky this time. Mull is great and we'll definitely visit again. Many thanks for watching and for leaving the comment, your support is very much appreciated. Take care and all the very best, Tony and Claire.

[@kingallison3880]

Hello guys which software do you use to create your animated route maps. Thanks. Nice Videos.

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there and thanks for watching. Unfortunately, at present there is no such software that allows animated tracking over a detailed map. What I do is record my screen whilst plotting the route live in Google My Maps. Once recorded (it sometimes takes multiple attempts) I then take the file into Davinci Resolve and add a small amount of motion/zoom over the recorded clip. To be fair, it's very much a pain in the backside!! Hope this helps, Tony.

[@Garncec]

Loved it as always! Ive asked Mrs Bish if I could get a hopefully and she too avoided a yes. She doesn’t do photography she said😉

[@adventurevanfreddie]

'she doesn't do photography' haha. Not the first neither shall she be the last lol.... Photography....its Marmite, love it or hate it lol. 👍😎👌📷. Thanks for watching and for leaving the comment buddy, hope you're well!

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Many thanks Alex, we're glad that you liked the photographs. Yes, because of the light, there is a lot of contrast in the black and white photos. Many thanks for watching and for leaving the comment. All the best as always.

I'm at a standstill !! Hope you are both well 😂🍻🥃

[@ianmcconnell7567]

Nice one guys, our back yard! The hotel alongside Neptune’s staircase (the canal locks) is where we got married 😂 great video, we go cycling down the Strontian road as the traffic is so light as you found, occasionally we turn left and do that infamous hill to the top before you head down to the Mull Ferry just as you head downhill there’s a road on the left which leads back to the Corran ferry as a nice 40 mile loop. Can’t wait to see where you went on Mull. Cheers !

[@colinabrehart5592]

Some stunning shots guys. Sorry to hear of your sad loss. We lost "Sid the step" in North Wales a few month ago when he was the victim of an RTC.......I left him out and ran over him! 🤣🤣.

[@adventurevanfreddie]

🤣😂🤣😭LMAO!!! 'Sid the Step'!!! So glad that we're not the only ones naming inanimate objects lol. What a sad ending for Sid...totaly abused by his owner haha! At least Barry died of natural causes, his flap/mouth fell off😂. RIP all camping equipment that has gone before us!

[@colinabrehart5592]

@@adventurevanfreddie Yep, hence "Adventure Van Freddie" and our "Connie Campervan" 😁. We now have a new step in our lives, meet "Stan" the step. Stan is suitably adorned in hi viz and reflective apparel just in case!😁👍

[@adventurevanfreddie]

@@colinabrehart5592 good to hear that you've taken the necessary precautions and have suitably adjusted the attire for Stan, hopefully his hi-vi's will ensure a longer llfe lol.😂🤣.

Brings back memories of our holiday in Scotland this year. The road you travelled down at Loch Linnhe was opposite where we stayed at Craiglinnhe House. We went to Mull for the Three Islands Tour. Happy days! Did you get to see the Commando Memorial just outside Fort William?

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi David. Not too far from where you were staying then. Mull is a beautiful place and glad to hear that you managed to visit as part of the Three Island Tour. Yes, I have visited the Commando Memorial, great place and loads of respect to all that have gone before us, especially veterans. Hope you're well buddy, any more adventures on the horizon?

Great that you guys have finally gone to Mull. It’s a firm favourite of ours and an island we’ve travelled to many times. We’ve always been lucky with wildlife sightings so fingers crossed you were to. We hope you went across to Iona, such a beautiful peaceful little place. 😊

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there Gillian, yes, we finally made it to Mull and our first impressions were 'what a beautiful place'!! Yes, we're keeping an eye out for the wildlife. We've seen an Eagle, very close up as it flew inches in front of our windscreen😬. No Iona yet, but definitely on the bucket list. Hope this finds you well and many thanks for watching.

Absolutely enjoy all your videos and you sharing the adventures. This was a very good video with plenty of stunning scenery, and lovely humorous touches, thanks . I’m not a photographer so most of your instruction was wasted on me ,but I’m sure it was very interesting for lots of your viewers. I did really like the shots you got of the wreck and loch with Ben Nevis , I appreciate your expertise 🥰 take care both 🚐👍

Eric, firstly, many thanks for watching, we truly appreciate your support. Secondly, sincere thanks and gratitude for leaving such a kind comment, it's very much kind words like yours that keep us going....thank you!!

We were over on Mull for a few days in August with dougalthecampervan, was fantastic, the landscapes were just beautiful and the flyfishing was not too shabby!!. The single track road from the NW southwards was a wee bit adventurous!!!. Cheers for another amazing episode, looking forward to next week's now!!!!.

[@adventurevanfreddie]

Hi there Chris. Ahh, you've already experienced Mull, sounds like you have had a great time. Fly fishing is something that we must try one day...what a skill and if you get it right, oh the reward!! Many thanks for watching and for your support. All the best and take care. Tony and Claire.
