Most Beautiful Video
Of course I was still expecting snow but when I woke up on the morning of the 3rd day and suddenly
(the night before everything was still green) there was a pack of snow I thought it was very special.
Beautiful images!
Details
this day
1. Reunion with my thermos
I have packed my things quite often in my young life by now.
Not only like during these adventures my tent but also when leaving hotel rooms, B&Bs, vacation homes, etc.
It is rare that I forget something but in this case it is an advantage that I always sleep in the same hotel. Of course, I also try to pull this off and assume that my thermos rolled into an impossible place when unpacking my backpack during the last adventure.
Fortunately, the people at the hotel (see this link) were sharp and my thermos was waiting for me nicely!
2. New text
Being in Glasgow feels like coming home.
The hotel, the route to the train station, the outdoor shop where I buy my last things before going on an adventure. In Inverness I had to find my way again which of course only makes an adventure more fun. Hotel is even closer to the train station and on the way there several outdoor stores!
3. New text
From / to Glasgow is also now standard by train, sometimes by bus. This was another new experience with new, and familiar, stops which also made it more fun.
