Thanks for all the help and tips on this thread, couple of photos from the trip:

Arrival in Sterling

Duck Bay, Loch Lomond

Outside Eilean Donan Castle

Cattle Pass on the way to Applecross
Had no problems with the weather, other than the COLD, back from Edinburgh on Sunday, 345 miles, left at just gone 4pm, home at 9:15pm and that included a couple of break stops
