Day trip to Ullapool

One of the things I love about where we live in Scotland is how easy it is to get to places. Where I’m from in Ontario, you can drive for hours in any direction and all you will find is more of the same. Here, you can head west and breath the ocean air of the Atlantic, east and you’re in the North Sea, south is England, and north you find the islands of Orkney and Shetland. We took a day trip to Ullapool this week, and it was a whole new world of bare mountain peaks, ocean breezes, deep gorges and lovely seafood.
