Silversands to Benderloch

We head back towards Fort William in the sun and decide to take the cable car up Ben Nevis.

Lucky for us, three old biddies (on a coach trip) had got group tickets, but didn't fancy going up to the top and hand over the three tickets to Tess.  This meant we only had to buy one ticket. (Saved us about £30!)

Woody was not impressed with the cable car and didn't want to get in.  I had to man handle him in and he sat shaking the whole way to the top.


Once on top (not the very top, just the ski station) we head off on a walk across the snow and avoiding skiers to a vantage point to take a few photos.  It was a bit nippy, so not long before Tess and the boys do a 'U' turn and head for the cafe.  Woody and I carried on to grab a few photos of the views.  As the weather was good, visibility wasn't too bad and I could see all the way back to Skye and the Cuillins.


Back to cafe, only to find dogs not welcome, so Woods and I sat outside for a bit before we got the cable car back down again.

Once south of Fort William, the weather changed for the worse and showered turned to rain as we arrived at our campsite (Seaview).

The site is immaculate and very neat with lots of nice touches.  Including frozen home made curries in a freezer. Yum, can't wait to try one!
