Oban

Finally we're sitting here in Oban, in a cozy lounge with rain falling in the streets outside. What a journey its been the last couple of days! Meeting friends & family of Jana that I've only heard about or seen in photos! After Chester we caught the train in to Manchester where Liz picked us up from the station with just enough time to see the last bit of the SA - France match.
Simon & Liz treated us to a braai in their garden with a little fox jealously peering over the fence and their cute daughter Abigail entertained us throughout.
On his way to work Simon dropped us at the Manchester airport where we started our bus journey... through the lake district to Glasgow. Changed buses and headed even further north all along the shores of Loch Lomond - BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL. 50minutes after changing buses again we finally reached the beautiful seaside town of Oban.
10 hours on the bus, but sooooooooooooo beautiful all the way.
Tomorrow we hope to explore the town of Oban and then off to Mull tomorrow afternoon for a couple of days.
