    Some lovely wooded walks aw Roxy and her paddle 🐶❤️ love the old bridge. Seems to grow out of nature. Carrbridge looks beautiful. Gorgeous beach. Who needs dolphins with Roxy about?! 😊👍🧙‍♂️

      Carrbridge was lovely - the carvings were quite fascinating too as you kept spotting them in different places. You’re right, the old bridge had a massive contrast to the new one and had a real at one with nature. The beach was lovely, shame it was so windy - I think you have to catch it just right for the dolphins and I don’t blame them in that wind. Lovely day though and quite an amazing place,
      Thank you - all the best, David & Rachel and Roxy of course 👍❤️🐾

    We loved Carrbridge can’t believe they’ve stopped motorhome overnight parking on that car park where we stayed! Shame that. Looking forward to more of your tour 👍

      There were people camping overnight in it when we were there (3 or 4) so think you would get away with it still but worth checking out the reviews on Park4Nights as some folks (all be it 90 ish percent seem to have been fine) have had trouble with youths banging on the van and/or throwing stones.
      We had been wanting to go to Carrbridge for some time to see Rachel’s friend so were glad to finally get there and thoroughly enjoyed it. I remember watching your vlog on it as part of your Scotland series. Was great to finally get there 😀
      All the best, David & Rachel 👍

    Hey now you are in God’s country, fantastic!! I used to stay in Cambridge when we were skiing, happy days. Normally we went to Glenshee as it was a day run from home but if snow was poor at Glenshee we would head over to the Cairngorms. Great to see the views again from Devon. Enjoy your trip folks. Cheers, Mike👍👍⛷🥃

    Carrbridge is lovely. We stayed at the CL Bogroy but I think it’s closed now 🙁 We had one night there and really enjoyed the walks and the village . 🚐 Trev n Sue

    • @LeisureBit
      @LeisureBit  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Trev n Sue, we actually pulled into Bogroy Croft CL - had to open the gate and everything to get in (Rachel had booked it and thought we were in Bogroy Croft and convinced me we weren’t at the other one 😀) anyway the lady said that they were related to the one we stayed at and sad they had now closed but they were doing 3 campervan/Motorhome pitches at the one we stayed at and we would be on there so we drove back up the hill and headed for the one we had past the sign for 😀
      Nice place isn’t it.
      All the best, David & Rachel (Roxy (and us) send ❤️ to Sophie - hope she’s recovering ok)

    Carrbridge is a handy spot for touring. We have been to Chanonry Point many times never seen a dolphin yet 😂

      What a shame, you must need to be there at just the right time to see them - there’s some impressive photos taken online if you catch them at the right time - don’t blame them on the day we visited - it was lovely and bright but blowing a gale! All the best, David & Rachel 👍

    More beautiful scenery from North of the boarder, we must do moremwhen we can find time. Amazing the bridge stands with what little is left but a great view. The water looked so clear and Roxy looked like she has a "whale" of a time🤣. Think I agree with you, stay somewhere for a couple of pounds rather than the carpark if there are iffy reviews. The image at the side of the Loch - wow that one for the travel log/scrapbook. And finally David - where was the beer 😂😂😂

      My friend knows the piper that stands on the bridge …. 1 brave person I wouldn’t!
      Trust me Tim, David had plenty of beer 🍺
      I thought Rox had spotted a dolphin 🐬 @ 1 point as she swam off! 🤣🤣
      An amazing visit and to get to spend time with Donna & Pete was magical 💕💕💕

    Bit late, but best time to see the Dolphins is an hour after low tide.

      @@LeisureBit I should have said on an incoming tide, right up to just before high tide. The Salmon come in with the tide and the Dolphins arrive at the same time to feed. Yes, It is amazing and we're fortunate to be able to see them every day. So pleased that you enjoyed our beautiful country, haste ye back..

    Love Scotland, so you and Rachel didn't fancy a swim🛀🛀 with Roxy David? Great that Rachel finally got to see her friend. Which site did you find negative reviews on for the car park. Cheers K.

      @LeisureBit  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Karlos it was so lovely to see Donna after these past few years! Despite England baking in heat the day we went dolphin watching it was freezing and blowing a Gale so we left Rox to swim!
      The reviews were on Park4nights saying kids were throwing stones and disturbing people. Apparently there is new signage saying no overnight parking. We just felt that for the sake of a few ££ it wasn’t worth the hassle 💕

      Thank you. It’s a lovely area isn’t it. We didn’t get chance to go to Rothiemurchus when we were there - we plan to go back so will add to our to-do list - thank you for the suggestion. All the best, David & Rachel 👍
