Our map...

This is basically the route we took - we went to Manchester to visit Emile. After Manchester we took a train through Carlisle to get to Edinburgh. We stayed there for a couple of days and then went on a jump on jump off tour of 3 days through MacBackpackers which took us the following route...
Day 1:Edinburgh - Pitlochry - Loch Ness - Inverness
Day 2:Inverness - Kyleakin (Isle of Skye) - Fort William - Oban
Day 3:Oban - Stirling - Edinburgh
We then flew home on Sunday morning 8h45... tired and happy.
