This weekend past was our 5 year anniversary, oh how time flies, so we decided to pack up the car take a wee overnight bag and head out to the west coast and perhaps stay in Oban for the night. We definitely lucked out for the weather, the drive was gorgeous and only his a tiny bit of rain just past our first stopping point at Loch Lubnaig, which was a gorgeous loch where you could fish and just further from our stopping point you could camp and get some hot food. But other than a wee pit stop there to stretch the legs, we headed further North West and stopped for food at Cruachan the Hollow Mountain. Where the panini's are extremely expensive, but ultimately satisfying, it was worth the stop as Loch Awe was gorgeous. And as we slowly made our way through the highlands the signs started showing their Gaelic roots and the name places were reflecting that. An t-Òban was only 38 miles away!
So not long now through Glen Ogle where we spotted the railway viaduct from the 1860's. I was pretty snap happy all the way along the journey so I have tried to wittle down my photos to a mere 16 or so and leave with with a wee taste as we made it to Oban safe and sound.
