Stirling
The nicest weather on my trip so far, warm and sunny. Since the weather is so nice, rather than going to Glasgow after Edinburgh (my original plan) I headed to Stirling. Stirling is home to the national swimming centre, which includes an olympic swimming pool. So my first stop this morning was the pool. From there I drove to Callander and then to Aberfoyle, over the Duke Pass, another "classic" UK touring route. Callander and Aberfoyle are in the Loch Lohmond and Trossachs national park, so it was all very picturesque. Later in the afternoon I walked up Ben Leni, also in the national park. In the bright sun it was quite hard going but the views from the top were great. The photo is taken from the top, looking east over Loch Lubnaig. The late sunset is great. I am writing this at 9.30pm and it is still quite light outside.
