Hi all,

I've been in mid Argyll, near Oban, since May and am planning to return home to sweet sweet Edmonton on halloween! However before I go I would like on an amazing Scotland ultratour as I have not really gotten around too much yet.

I will have about one week and £225 or slightly more and friends in Glasgow (where I will probably spend a bunch of time cuz its free )

Would like to see the real highlands and some nice lochs and castles.

Any travelers wanting to have a drink and swap stories? Let me know of any really amazing things that I should see or do before I head back to my (snowy, already!!) home!

p.s. how can I best stretch out my cash?


*grins*

Hi Danni,
First question, what have you been doing near Oban all this time? Just curious, it's not exactly most people's first stop.
Second question, is it really snowy in Edmonton already?!

I don't know how much help I can be as I haven't spent that much time in the highlands myself. I am in Stirling which is really worth a day trip, in my humble opinion! Stirling castle is fabulous and there are lots of other attractions that you can get a discount on using your ticket for the castle.

Do you have a car or are you relying on the train/bus?

Hi!

Been staying with relatives here and helping them out, mostly. Otherwise I would have made tracks to somewhere more populated!

I am travelling by train because (gasp) I've still not learned to drive a manual car... lol
