Mon 4 Sept 13° Lanark to Balloch

Good quiet night, owners wife Jackie came by with 2 sites for us in Spain and Portugal,  very thoughtful.

Dry day as we left Pat and Les ......first cab off the ramp haha......heading to Loch Lomond.

Showers as we drove on to the A73 and got a fill of diesel £1.19 £50 42 ltrs. Overcast skies, then misty drizzle as we drove over the Firth of Clyde. Erskine bridge in the mist.

First bit of bad road surface as we drove to Loch Lomond Shores, looking for seafood but the festival was yesterday only.

Pouring with rain now and we drive on to Balloch Road Car park....Sat nav took us up a private road and Pat and Les found a lovely park over the bridge with long parks for motorhomes,  so we turned round, found them and parked next to them.  Good spot.

We walked around the town and to the Tourist Information Center, picked up a few brochures and were told Luss and Oban good for seafood. We went to the pub for a drink then next door for fish and chips,  Pat and I had salad and the guys had deep fried haggis!

Pat and I took dogs for a walk to the Loch and we met Russell and Margaret from Paraparaumu and they know our very good friends from  there...small world.

Very quiet and peaceful spot, walked to the waters edge and through the woods, lovely place. Pat came in for a drink and a chat, we could hear bagpipes but couldn't see anythink, then she went back for dinner.

Early night.
