These are all the gift I bought seriously really too much all the whiskey, fridge magnet and the butter cookies from Scotland ^^

Really enjoy the whole trip although very tired, on the way home nearly got dizzy due to the road that the bus go through.

Overall nice trip, thanks to the tour guide that have been so tiring of it.

Happy always ^^

Scotland Day 4

After hectic day and super tiring day after hiking Isle of Skye
On day 4 which is the second last day we are going in Caledonian Canal, Fort William Town, Ben Nevis distillery, Glenfinnan Viaduct and Glencoe.

This time the view outside my hostel is nice, whereby you can see the bridge to go to Isle of Skye which called the Skye Bridge

This is our first stop Caledonian Canal




This is a special canal, it looks like a ladder with water from different level so that the boat can move from a high water area to lower water area.
This thing function is transferring water of different level from high to low from one area to another area so that the boat can cross over it.


 Ben Nevis Distillery is our next station, of course before that we do went to Morrison which is a supermarket to buy our lunch. Of course we just buy some roasted chicken and pork rib as our lunch as we are rushing to the distill factory.

The Nevis Distillery is one of the oldest whiskey producer in Scotland. That is why we are here.

The factory separate into 4 parts which use to distill the water and also produce the whiskey and also produce the alcohol.
Look at all these barrels are all contained with whiskey






This is the railway road where in the movie of Harry Potter once took place, this place is call  Glenfinnan Viaduct 

This is the train, hardly got the chance to take it



This is the monument opposite the railway station


This is the seaside around this area ^^

We go to Glencoe which a place to view lot of mountain
Glencoe famous of the mountain which call as 3 sisters ^^




 This is the night view of Glasgow...just a small city overall not bad, but just a bit scared cause the people here is a bit wild compare to Sheffield just the feeling I felt, but we do have a great dinner here




End of 4th day of Scotland 
Happy always
