- Western ScotlandOnce back on the road I realised how important rest days were. My legs felt very good, with good weather and beautiful scenery the road to Oban was very enjoyable, even met some Lands End to John O' Groats cyclists. Posted by ukextremes in UK Coastal Bike Ride | Feb 8, 2012
- South West ScotlandI camped near Annan and on getting going I decided I had 100 miles in my legs. The ride was beside the Solway Firth, which is beautiful on both sides, but the Scotish side reminded me of Devon where I Posted by ukextremes in UK Coastal Bike Ride | Feb 2, 2012

A nice relaxing sleep-in, happy days. Our focus for the day to find the mysterious Nessie, lying somewhere with the famous Loch Ness. We'd Posted by Team W in Team W | Jan 14, 2012
- Saturday, August 27, Day 21Our hotel was literally across the street from the Edinburgh Airport. We awoke at 6am for a 9:30am flight which was to take us from Edinburgh to Newark and from Newark to SFO.

- Friday, August 26, Day 20This was moving day, once again. We had a wonderful breakfast at the Lodge and then hit the road back to Edinburgh. There was a fairly consistent rain throughout the journey. We entertained thoughts of driving to Posted by stevencavalli07 in Ireland/Scotland August 2011 | Jan 5, 2012

- 1st December 2011Another really windy night, the van rocking all night long. Somehow our roof stayed together with just clothes lines to hold it in place. We need a new skylight so once again we head out to a caravan shop to Posted by kimdanny in Kim and Danny 2011 | Dec 4, 2011
- 30th November 2011This morning I did a very quick tour around Fort William but there wasn't much to see. Even the lake wasn't a highlight. On cold, wet, windy days everything just looks grey. So instead of hanging around town we decided Posted by kimdanny in Kim and Danny 2011 | Dec 4, 2011
- EdinburghDW - having heard so much about Edinburgh we decided a few months ago that we'd just go and see what all the fuss is about. Neither of us had a great passion to see Edinburgh (or Scotland, at that) Posted by Team W in Team W | Dec 1, 2011
- 29th November 2011We walked back into Inverness and up to the castle, which is now a courthouse. It wasn't very big and gave some average views over the town, so we didn't spend long up there. We quickly did some shopping, Danny Posted by kimdanny in Kim and Danny 2011 | Dec 1, 2011

- 26th November 2011Today was the windiest day of our lives. We hardly slept because the van was rocking in the wind all night – we were actually scared it would tip over. It didn't. I can't believe there weren't more trees uprooted Posted by kimdanny in Kim and Danny 2011 | Nov 29, 2011
- 25th November 2011We had a lot of rain last night, but Danny's quick fix on the skylight seemed to have held. There were a few drops but nothing significant. We had another horribly windy day, with rain on and off.
