We did B&B Rooch, Started and finished with the Premier Inn at Inverness then across to the Isle of Skye for two nights. Rejoined the NC500 route up to Gairloch-Drumbeg-Skail-Castletown-Portmahomack-Inverness. Then she who must be obeyed wanted to drive around Loch Ness and the surrounding area which left it late for the journey home so we booked another hotel at Dunfermline and had an easy ride home.

10 days 8 hotels.

I have a couple of good websites that makes it easy to plan if you are interested

One of the best road trips i did was LA up through the giant sequoia forests and Yosemite. Drove across the Tioga pass and up through Carson city to Reno.
From there it was across to the californi/Oregon border through Redding then down the entire coast back to L.A ,
Great trip with great memories. US late spring was wondeful as all the waterfalls were in full flow with wildflowers everywhere. The Tioga pass is only open April through October due to snow and the scenery is breathtaking.

Did this last year over 5 days. Excellent holiday but needs at least 2 weeks. Thinking of going over it again this year. The road over to Applecross is not for the faint hearted. Definately recommend, but August maybe a nightmare with everyone in motorhomes. The pass to Applecross says not ideal to motorhomes or hgvs, but they still go on it. I went in September after the schools returned but it was still very busy. Scenic views are unbelievable

When in trouble turn to my not606 friends.

2023 I owe my family a major holiday. Think holiday of a lifetime. A number of milestones reached in terms of age and kids education. As per norm I am late to plan it.

I had thought to go dual safari / beach in Africa. I spoke to an agent earlier and he said I was struggling as most good packages went last year. Quoted my c£14k <doh> but no guarantee he could even do that! He was a bit of a car salesmen mind...

Thinking about a cruise. Family saying that is a good choice. I am wary though. Might end up with some people close up I just dont like <laugh>. Seems a bit contrived to me a cruise.

I need inspiration. Any ideas welcome. Oh and it needs to be August as my wife is a teacher <doh> like I say, I am completely disorganised....
