Loch Lomond

The plan for the day was to visit Loch Lomond, less than an hours drive from Paisley. Sandra, Cassie (the exuberant Alsatian) and I arrived at the Southern end (I think) of the Loch. Its quite commercial here, with restaurants, fun fairs and a visitor centre. It was Bank holiday in England so many of them had presumably come over the border.

The loch separates the highlands from the lowlands and thus the Gaels from the Scots, and it is situated on a huge fault line. God does have a sense of humour. After a while of walking around this area and enticing Cassie into the water for a few fetch swims we headed for less populated areas.

On the way we stopped for a lovely lunch and then back into the car where we found some peaceful shores, and plenty of photo opportunities. Of course all the while we were catching up on nearly 30 missed years.
