Invergordon-Inverness
We land at Invergordon but are advised to take the bus to Inverness (unless one goes on one of those expensive trips) . It is raining, but we an still admire in passing the white sheep and green pastures. At Inverness we go past the tourist shops and arrive-I think- at the touristic centre of the town: a building combining cafeteria, museum, gift shop and castle views. Remembering that this area is rich in stone age and more recent relics we spend some time at the museum area (after having coffee and cake, of course). The exhibits are beautifully displayed against charts and diagrams. There is even- this is Scotland- a real kilt to try on and a mirror to admire oneself.
Facing this building is the river offering a lovely walk along its banks (preferably when the rain doesn't come down in sheets) and high above is the Castle, with a wide terrace looking above the neighbourhood with a statue of Flora McDonald greeting the visitors.
