Glencoe

We drove up to Glencoe today and back again... all for a scone! Well, for a scone and a few photos.

There's a small coffee shop/cafe on the road into Glencoe called "Crafts & Things" which has excellent home-made scones and cakes. Its toasted ciabatta sandwiches aren't half bad either - and likewise the hot chocolate (albeit it has an obscene amount of cream on top, which looks almost like whipped ice cream! Have a look at the photo if you don't believe me). We've been to this place loads of times and we think it's excellent. It's about a 2.5 hour drive each way from where we live on the west coast of Scotland, but that's not too bad, really and it was a nice, sunny day. I didn't drive, mind you - my input involved sitting in the passenger seat of the car and taking the odd photo or ten.

We really like the Glencoe and Ballachulish area and we've visited lots of times over the last six years or so.
