Carrbridge

We were staying in the little village of CarrBridge in the central highlands. this village is about 4 blocks long, has a lovely stream running through it, and a central wooded park.

We were actually staying about 2 miles outside of town, at The Pines guesthouse, a B&B. Lynn was our hostess and she was wonderful. One night, she made a very special dinner for us. Lynn has a beautiful place, with lots of room to walk up the hills behind there. We took some amazing photos from behind her house. Diana loved her yard as it was full of gnomes, bird and squirrel feeders. She has the fattest squirrels and bunnies you've ever seen.

The rest of the evenings there, we ate at the one pub in CarrBridge. This place was dog friendly, sometimes having more dogs than people almost. The food was hearty and good, especially the grilled pork chops. We discovered there was so much we could actually split the dish. We met a young man there named Liam who tried to teach James how to play Snooker.

This was our base for several days adventures. Those will come in other postings.
