Fort William

by WBlackwell on September 19, 2011

It was supposed to be Glencoe but the bus driver refused to stop as it wasn’t a scheduled stop.  Despite the harassment from a couple of passengers, he plowed on to the Visitor’s center.  There I was told the foot bridge was out so I was looking forward to a 10 mile trip in the rain.  Hopping a bus to Ft W made more sense.  Having not planned to see the town, I simple went for a walk-about to get a general overview.  I liked it.  The location is sort of centralish to all of Scotland, and the scenery is brilliant.  I also got my first test of Macsween’s haggis at The Grog & Gruel.  Out of this world, served with a Drambuie cream sauce and a number of 1/2 pints of varied brews.
