On this day of our Scotland trip SkyTrain and I decided to follow the signs of Nessie...
Along the route we also collected some caches to get closer to Nessie - maybe we'll find him...

We left Inverness in pouring rain heading toward Kyle of Lochalsh . The rain actually made Loch Ness much more mysterious, perhaps increasing our chances of a glimpse of the monster! The wet weather put a stop to some of the caching, however by the time we reached Kyle the sun was shining. This is one of the caches we did manage to find along the way. We read the tragic story of John Cobb at the Loch Ness Centre.

Having visited the tourist bit this morning we (well I in any case, Mrs R had a passing memory) found out about Cobb for the first time, a remarkable man and a sad accident, but even sad history is still interesting, so I was interested to see the memorial on the attraction film, and then even happier to spot it on the road and then the cache! Awesome. So a quick stop and rummage and the cache was in hand. Great to have the excuse to stop and pay respects to a true adventurer! TFTC
Found with our geo-family [green]The_Westies[/green] and [blue]Horrid Henry[/blue], whilst on a trip out to look for Nessie, signing the logs off as [purple]Team 3[/purple] or [purple]T3[/purple] for short and to save space in the logbook.[^]
We had a fabulous day out amid some of the most breath taking scenery we've ever seen, thanks so much for placing this cache and bringing us to this wonderful place.[^][:X]

Out for a day-trip up to Loch Ness, we opted for a drive as we had just been up Ben Nevis and couldn't walk too far with LostnWet and Horrid Henry (signing as Team 3/T3 for the day). Great day in some fantastic locations with great scenery. Thanks for bring us here and TFTC.
I drove a little bit along loch ness this afternoon. I looked for nessie but did not see it.
When I passed by a cache I tried to find it.
The Memorial was a short stop and an easy find.

Busy going through my GSAK database and updating caches I haven't sent a log for. Have been using GSAK to keep tabs on my finds. Thanks to the cache owners for the caches. Working my way through those caches that require emails with answers.
Scary spot to have to get to but nice to see a site like this. World record or not, it's sad he didn't survive. TFTC
