The Glenfinnan Monument from the Viewpoint

This time the monument from up the hillside and showing more of Loch Shiel and the lovely little island, Eilean Ghlean Fhionnainn. This was the dry weather viewing of the monument, instead of the snowstorm and misty views we also had. As the comedian Billy Connolly said "Scottish weather? What kind of weather do you want, sunshine, rain, sleet or snow? Just wait around for an hour and its sure to come along". :0) I shouldn't be telling you this but if you want to experience a fantastic wee chunk of Scotland, then visit the Morar Peninsula. Bonnie Prince Charlie did and came back a second time only with his tail between his legs, to flee back to France, never to return to Scotland, or to Britain.
