It is Day 2 of our short holiday touring Scotland , we have driven all the way up to Loch Lomond and it is WET! A short stop here for lunch before we carry on up towards our next overnight spot.
The Terrible Twosome don't look impressed with the weather haha
Anyhow, after a short journey up to Tyndrum we have parked up in the "By the Way" campsite. there is no point going anywhere further today with the current forecast.
Nestled in the trees , with camping pods it is a really nice stop over.
The rain has been heavy all afternoon, evening and its not too good here tomorrow , so we have decided that tomorrow morning we should drive all the way up through Glencoe , Fort William, Loch Ness up to Cannich. The forecast is looking good up in that area for a couple days so booked in for a couple of nights at the Woodland campsite. There seems to be plenty of spaces available in most of the campsites now after the short summer period after Lockdown when they were all full .
The next morning we stop off at a few places along the A82 to take a few images.

After a long journey we have finally arrived in Cannich , and the blue sky has welcomed us :)
The Glen Affric trail is only a few minutes walk from the campsite , so time to take a short walk with the Spanners as it will be getting dark very soon.
The next morning it is sunny with blue sky , so we are going to walk part of the Glen Affric trail
Its still a bit too early for the best autumn colours but the trees and bracken are turning nicely.

We have come to a turning , the forest path goes left which we will take , but first a view across to the mountains with the last of the blue sky as thick cloud and rain looks like its approaching from behind us!

This is the track we are following through the woods. The cloud has built up quickly now, I think it will be raining very shortly. So much for the sunny day that was forecast!
After about twenty minutes we have come out at a high point with the trees having been felled to form a good clearing.
Time to get the drone up quickly before the rain starts.

It has started raining almost immediately , landed the drone quickly and then get the long lens out as the light across the valley is very nice.
Sun lit pylons across the valley.

It has started raining heavier now, so we have walked back the way we have come and found this large truck . The rain didn't last long but I guess it will be on/off all afternoon .

Back at the van now and Ozzy sits on Chester
Over the last couple of days we have noticed that Ozzy has been breathing faster than normal while resting , need to keep an eye on him closely.
