INVERNESS

An interesting small city of some 45,000 people. It is the eastern end of the Caledonian canal that splits Scotland in two. It provides an easy way for commercial and recreational boats to transit across Scotland either east to west or vice versa. It was built in the early 19th century.

We liked Inverness, not only for the size but also for the way the River Ness and the Caledonian Canal defined the city. Not only did we take in some music, but treated ourselves to one of the few dinners out on our trip. Not to focus on the costs in Britain these days, but that one dinner out set us back 100 British pounds!!! No, we didn’t drink a lot!
