Or first stop was Glenfinnan where there is a monument to commemorate the place where Bonnie Prince Charlie raised his standard at the beginning of the Jacobite Rebellion.
Paralleling the road for most of the way is the railroad. Besides the normal rail traffic, once a day The Jacobite, a steam driven tourist train makes the run. In a recurring theme all over the UK, this train was used in the filming of the Harry Potter series. It's amazing how many people tour the UK on Harry Potter Tours.
Now for some photos:

We had a great time in Scotland, ate well, skipped the Haggis, stayed in a very comfortable B&B, enjoyed the weather because it did not rain while we were out and about and we just scratched the surface. I guess this is one more place we'll have to return to.
