  • Hi Everyone! 🙌🏼
    Here is Day 6 of our Scottish trip! Second half of the day!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
    We filled our bellies at the Tea on the Shee in the Cairngorms and then we travelled across the way to Furnace, stopping off at Iain Burnett's Highland Chocolatier along the route 🍫
    Once we made it to our STUNNING Accommodation - The Powder Mills, we took a trip to the nearest town for food Inveraray... well, Mike rode and I hopped on as pilly.. this girl wanted a cocktail damn it🤣🍸
    Hope you enjoy it and can forgive me for being gross drinking the thick melted chocolate 🤦‍♀️
    Thanks!

    Cracked GoPro lens gives an upsdie down view of the sky. Depending on where you are gives you double value if there is good weather and blue skies. Doesn't seem to have done your singing voice much harm either! YMCA indeed!

I know what you mean about the chocolate place, I'm the same with the prices in those places, unfortunately, an hour later you think 'I should have bought some'. As for the u-turn thing, I've been riding bikes for 47 years or so and, I'm still crap doing them! 🤣.
