Day two of my four day trip around Scotland saw me drive from Oban to Thurso. Getting up rather early, I headed to Castle Stalker where I was quite eager to record some time lapse.

Despite being out in a relatively remote location, there was still the occasional person around and I saw several boats coming and going to the castle. Getting to see the location, made famous by Monty Python, was great and I wound up with some images that I feel were worth the trip.
From there I headed to Fort William, where I must confess I hastily ate a Big Mac before continuing west to Glenfinnan Monument.
Glenfinnan itself was nice, but my trip was rather packed with places to be and my schedule didn’t afford me the time I should have had to properly explore and hike.
After Glenfinnan, I continued north to Thurso. I stopped only a couple of times.. either for fuel or photos. I enjoyed the Highlands north of Inverness. It was a relatively nice drive and I stopped in at Dingwall for dinner at… well, I’ve eaten at better restaurants.
Unfortunately I didn’t make as good of time as I’d hoped, and as we were past the Solstice, I hadn’t accounted for the earlier sunset than I had been counting on. I guess it’s important to check for the times on these things 🙂 but this means that I only just caught the sun set, and not from where I had hoped to be. Still, it was beautiful.
