Highland Roadtrip {february 2013}


Last weekend Julia, her brother and I went on a little road trip to the Highlands.
We left Saturday morning and came back on Sunday evening, so it was not that long but it was amazing how far away I felt from all the uni stress and the same old daily routine.
We went to the Famous Grouse Whisky distillery, to the area around Glencoe and Ben Nevis, hiked to Steall Falls, went to Glenfinnan and made some other small stops on the way.

We had the most amazing weather as you will see in the pictures and no single drop of rain.
We also found this amazing river where the water was just see through, like it is supposed to be in the Fairy Pools- I really wanted to jump in, it looked soo tempting!

Since there are a lot of pictures, you have to click on "read more" to view them.
Enjoy!
