Bongo Fury

Hi

We ended up having a quick two night trip, spent the first night in The Red Squirrel and the second in the Croft, Arisaig.

Stopped on the way up to get a picture of the Freda with Buaichille Etive Mor



In the morning we took the kids up The Lost Valley (or hidden valley) in Glencoe.





Donald and Lachlann enjoyed playing on the boulders



Next we moved to Arisaig, stayed at a very basic site (no showers) but it was nice and cheap (£12) and has a lovely beach.

A good view of the Cuillin Ridge on Skye







Lachlann cooked us breakfast on our last morning (sort of)

Nice trip, nice photos.

We are off to Skye later in the month - hoping for some good midge free weather.

Very nice
Looks a great weekend

How long would it take me to driv there from Workington. ( North west Lake District )
We can see Scotland across the water from the beach

Quite often get up to the lakes
But never crossed the border into Scotland
I quite fancy a week up there next year wild camping

Nice pics you guys,cracking scenery,hoping to pop down to borders meet to see a few faces.are you guys going

We went to the Highlands two years ago, kids loved, this was pre Bongo though, now we have "Perry" the Bongo its on our wishlist for touring around, such a stunning place. Nice pics and memories you have.

In *jeans*???!?

Nice trip, though... was that the same campsite where I realised I'd left my rucksack at the bottom of Ben Nevis?

Lovely pictures we passed bongo like yours in Glencoe on Friday then passed one again on way back from Fort william same day , sadly we were not in Bongo but hopefully soon

Great looking trip

The hidden Valley - did you find any coos up there. They might have been hiding from Mc Donalds butcher.

Smashing pictures!

How's the Squirrel looking?

Three pairs of jeans and one pair of jeggings ( on Ishbel, I'm too old and fat for jeggings)

Yep same campsite, the beach is lovely, full of shells for Ishbel and crabs for Lachann ha ha ha.

Might have been us, we were walking in Glencoe on Friday, then headed off to Arisaig mid afternoon.

Good luck with your Bongo hunt, have you been to see any yet?
