Was up in the Outer hebrides over the weekend there. Beautiful island and we'll worth a trip. Weather wasn't the best but didn't detract from the trip. Stopped off at Fort Augustus on the way up then ferry from Ullapool to Stornoway.
A few pics...

That brings back memories of my recent trip. I was lucky that the weather was good. The roads were so empty too.

Great photos - looks like Luskintyre beach on Harris in one of them. We were over there in motorhome at the start of July, first went there on the TDM in 1999 - can't believe how busy it was - too many feckin' motorhomes and campervans!

That was what struck me on my recent visit to the Highlands. I have never seen so many campervans/motorhomes.
