I got to Inverness, Scotland at about 4:30 this afternoon. The bus ride here was pretty good, mainly because I didn’t have anyone sitting next to me. I always mention it, but it really makes a trip more relaxing when you don’t have to be squashed up in a seat and jockeying for a small portion of the armrest. So that being said it was a good trip.
I found out that Inverness is in the Highlands of Scotland…which I didn’t know until today. I also found out that Inverness is right next to Loch Ness. When I say right next to, I mean on the map it looks like it’s sitting on it. If you read an earlier post I mentioned that was a little bummed out that I wasn’t going to see Loch Ness because of the timing and that the tour company didn’t give refunds. By coming here and booking a tour of Loch Ness instead of taking the tour from Edinburgh it looks like I’ve saved about half the cost, and I get to see another city too.
Today after arriving here I took off for a walk around the city. I can’t really say that this city is very picturesque, but it is a nice place. It’s got a small square and the people don’t seem to rush around at all. The Scottish people are really friendly too, I don’t know why exactly, but it constantly surprises me on how kind people can be. Maybe it just shows how rude people are in Dubai and the US.
