Yesterday we hiked along the river that runs right past the house where we are staying. Throwing rocks in the water is always fun!
We also did a lot of reading together. I like stories!
Today we drove from the East side to the West of Scotland through the highlands. Beautiful!
Our first stop (other than quick photo stops) was Glencoe. The closest comparison that comes to mind is the heart of the Colorado Rockies. My apologies for slacking in the photo department.
Second stop: Ben Nevis, the highest point in Scotland. Judah (not feeling well), Mom, Dad, and Baruch, decided to take it easy today. The rest of us set off, not planning to get to the top, but just wanting to have a fun hike and see some sites. Asher and I got halfway. He was starting to get tired (so was my ankle). We turned around. The most beautiful thing we saw (in my opinion) was a lake high up seated on a saddle between two peaks. I assume Nan, Gabe, and Seth made it to the top because they’re not back yet and I’ve been sitting here getting water, eating, writing emails, writing this post, etc.
