The Jacobite Express is a steam train that runs from Forst William through Glenfinnen and on to Malaig. If you've seen the second Harry Potter movie you've probably seen the Glenfinnen viaduct. So we got to travel over it, hurrah! It helped that one of the people sharing our train cabin was a fellow Rav member, we had a great chat on the way there. Glenfinnen village was cute, and I got to pretend I was in Highlander. VUH was in his train-geeky element and had his little-boy grin on his face all day :)
We had a great lunch in Malaig and managed to send some postcards home. Grabbed some snacks, back in the train, all the way home again, jiggety jig. It was a really nice day, I had a great time.
Then we got on a bus across to Inverness. I managed to sleep for some of the way, but the rest was not-fun travel sick ness. Ick. It was raining when we arrived in Inverness but we finally managed to find our hostel, check in and grab some dinner.
