Travelled: 179 kilometres from Grantown-on-Spey to Perth, both in Scotland
Visited: Mostly just driving the Cairngorms National Park and Balmoral Castle ยฃ9.50pp
Stayed: Perth, Rodney Gardens car-park, free on sunday. N56.39458, W03.42189
After an evening of chatting and drinking with Jo and Ian we have a very quiet night wildcamping on the Spey. So we are up relatively early, coffee and fruit and getting the Hymer tidy for a long drive.
Our on and off travelling companions are heading east for Aberdeen, whilst we will continue south. Not sure, exactly where at this point, but somewhere.
We say goodbye to Jo and Ian again and wish them a safe journey, before heading off.
We lunch back in the Hymer before continuing south once more. Being Sunday afternoon, even in this remote part of the Scottish highlands there is a reasonable amount of traffic. Lots of motorcycles travelling in group are the biggest challenge.
With the road blocked the traffic is very light for the next hour. We eventually leave the Cairngorms and drive on to Perth.
