After the Jamborette

Once the Jamborette was over, the Scouts each went home with a Scottish Scout for three days of home visitation. Pete also chose home visitation, while Jerry and I rented a car and drove west from Blair Atholl to the Isle of Mull, then back to meet the group in Edinburgh for the flight home. Here are a selection of pictures from our after-Jamborette touring. 

Ardverikie House - or maybe you remember it as Glenbogle House from Monarch of the Glen?	Loch Laggan After the Jamborette, we stayed one night at the Rumblie B&B in Laggan, the village which stood in for Glenbogle in Monarch
OK, I still like sheep...	Kilchoan on the Ardnamurchan Peninsula This is where you catch the Kilchoan-Tobermory Ferry
Loch Scridain, Isle of Mull	Tobermory, capital of the Isle of Mull The ferry lets out right on this waterfront road. We stayed at the Tobermory Hotel, the tan building on the harbor, just left of center. It was the perfect base to spend a day walking around Tobermory and the area.
Tobermory Light with CalMac ferry MV Clansman The light is a relatively short and easy walk from Tobermory village. At least, that's what the guidebook says. It was probably about two and a half miles, but well worth the time.	Stream near Tobermory on the path to the lighthouse
Scoor, Isle of Mull	Salen, Isle of Mull
Duart Castle, Isle of Mull from the Mull to Oban ferry	Eilean Musdile lighthouse on the Sound of Mull  (View from Mull to Oban ferry)
Oban harbor	The Falls of Leny
The Falkirk Wheel The wheel's a marvel of engineering, built in 2000 to link the Union Canal and Forth and Clyde Canal, replacing a chain of 11 locks which had been dismantled in the 1930's. Boats float into a kind of bathtub on wheels at the end of each arm, and the wheel rotates to lift the boats 115 feet.
