Week 6 - Tuesday - Loch Oich

On a pontoon at the moment at the bottom of Loch Oich.

We are next to a Lodge Park and we half heartedly watched the England game last night in their clubhouse. Hard to raise too much interest though as Jim is Welsh and I feel totally disconnected from the real world of news and sport.

All went well yesterday and we made good progress along the canal. Jim and i have established our lock handling technique and his rope throwing is now of olympic standard!

It was another day of low cloud, so we are still not convinced that there are any mountains around here!

Loch Lochy was very pretty and seemed remote - that was until we noticed the very busy Fort William to Inverness 'A' road running alongside!

Sun is out today, a perfect day to finally see some scenery and maybe the monster in Loch Ness.
