We'd have loved to have spent more time in the town of Strathpeffer, but it was off we went to view more of Scotland's spectacular scenery - Dornoch Firth
see; the Kyle of Sutherland
see; the Mountains of Assynt
see and Knockan Crag
see.

| KYLE OF SUTHERLAND FISHERY - SALMON RUN |
We had visited this site some years back when were in Scotland on our own. At that time the salmon were running and while my pictures weren't very good, we did see some.

| BY NOW, THE FOUR CONSTANT COMPANIONS. WE ARE SO GRATEFUL FOR THIS FRIENDSHIP, TRAVELLING WITH THEM ENRICHED THE EXPERIENCE AND GAVE US SUCH GREAT MEMORIES! |

As we ended the day's tour, our guide announced that we were going to have a special, added stop at the end of day. One of our bus-mates had brought her mother's ashes to be cast at a designated location very dear to her mother. We were so immensely touched that both our guide and our wonderful driver had agreed on this plan. I think that supporting Maxine in this endeavor made our little bus family even closer.
