A pleasant sunny solo day in Inverness. I went to the Botannical Gardens (and bought plants, oops). Climbed a big hill with a cemetery on it. Enjoyed the local vegan food scene.

Sunrise at the lochside. A castle visit. A wander around Inverness city and river islands. Put Dave on a bus back home, but I stayed.
Dave and I went on a mini adventure to the Highlands. We stopped over in Inverness, then bussed to a quiet hostel on the side of Loch Ness.
We promptly proceeded to climb Meall Fuar-mhonaidh, going extremely the long way around. A few wrong-side-of-the-fence mishaps, and forcing our way through ferns taller than me. We were also delayed by vast quantities of chanterelles.
After descending, we reached a small and lovely tea room / pottery barn, just in time for rain. So we stayed a while for cake.
The route back took us along the Great Glen Way.
That evening I made wild mushroom stir fry to share with the couple of other people in the hostel. Dave had a pizza.
