The weekend before last involved a day trip to Applecross, one of my many favourite spots on the west coast of Scotland.

That meant a chance for a bit of a road trip westwards…

…an ascent of the infamous Bealach na Bà…

And lunch at the legendary Applecross Inn – which you absolutely must visit if you’re ever in the area for its ridiculously reasonable prices and extraordinarily good local food.

It was one of the first trips of the year. It feels like summer is coming at last.
