GENERAL WADE 1

Who was he. We are staying in a 3 room B&B in Whitebridge, which you get to along a B road called General Wade's Rd. It runs along the ridge beside Loch Ness and is very narrow with passing places, very bendy & very hilly. Lin was having kittens but the local were belting past a 70. Fort Augustus was nice, went on boat trip with sonar searching for some monsters. No luck. Fort A is one end of Loch Ness & has a 5 step lock system to get you into the Cally Canal. Big boats come through as you can see. Took mountaineer Lil out for a trek tonight to Falls of Foyers. Very nice 3mile hilly walk but for the rain. The waterfall was impressive, as was the cabin on wheels on the bank of Ness. The B&B is so nice really quiet and isolated in the glen. The deer & pheasant come right up to our bedroom. Should be a quiet night.
