We spent easter in central Scotland, surrounded by snow capped mountains and lochs, as well as the occasional blizzard.We based ourselves at a cottage on Loch Earn – with a picturesque outlook and proceeded to eat our way through the weekend with occasional forays into the surrounding areas.As Chhay’s office only believes in Christ’s resurrection rather than his death, Claire & I pottered our way up to the house via B-roads, picking up Claire’s friends Jen & Marco fresh off the London train on the way.
Loch Tay, provided some spectacular scenery, and a rather snow bound attempt at canoing as Jen and Marco demonstrated their turning ability rather too well. Other highlights were the brooding Loch Lubnaig and the incredible countryside around Crieff.
As we meandered back on Monday we stopped of at the Lake on Monteith and caught the teeny ferry over to the abandoned Inchmahome Priory (below). A delightful picnic in the sun trap created by the atmospheric ruins capped off a fantastic weekend.
