Tuesday 19th September - Inverness to Dumfries

Nosey around Inverness for a couple of hours before heading south. Drive through the Cairngorms, over the Forth Road Bridge, skirt around Edinburgh before driving through the Pentland Hills and across to Dumfries.

Again the scenery is wonderful. I'm driving through parts of Scotland I don't know that well and wish I had more time to stay - I'll have to come back. Stop briefly in Biggar. It seems a slightly eccentric town - it has several museums (including one about the gasworks) as well as puppet theatre! I don't have enough time to spend here and make a note that I need to come back to this part of Scotland - central belt and the borders. Pull into Dumfries - the English border is near...
