Oban, Scotland, UK















































The name Oban means "Little Bay", this place claims to have some of Scotland's most spectacular scenery, and it did not disappoint. It is also considered to be the seafood capital of Scotland. Located at The Firth of Lorn there are lochs, fantasy castles and Highland glens to explore. 

The tour today was called Scenic Scottish Highlands. Another very knowledgable guide today, regaling us with the history, tales and music of the area. You know there must be fairies and sorcerers living here. So lush and beautiful. I loved that they do such a good job replanting trees as they harvest the older ones (talk about Christmas tree heaven). The sun was a little shy again today, but we only had to deal with occasional sprinkles. 

Heading further North tomorrow, so we shall see what the weather gods have in store for us.
