Fàilte gu Alba
We slipped into Earth orbit early this morning, and before long we were making our way north to our cottage by the majestic Loch Ness. The journey was easy, and stepping out into the Highland air felt like crossing into another world entirely.
The rain from last night had already given way to brilliant blue skies, scattered white clouds, and a soft, refreshing breeze drifting across the loch. It’s the kind of weather that makes everything feel newly washed and quietly alive.
After unpacking and settling our things, we stopped for lunch. The cottage may look beautifully traditional, all warm wood, stone, and history, but it hides its modern comforts well. The replicator is tucked behind an old wooden door, blending perfectly into the rustic aesthetic when not in use.
Once fed and organised, we laced up our walking boots and set out to explore the local area. The landscape is breathtaking: rolling green hills, ancient trees, and that timeless Highland stillness that feels unchanged for centuries. It’s easy to imagine generations before us seeing the very same views.
Even from the cottage patio, the scenery is enough to hold you in place. You could sit there for hours, just watching the light shift across the water and the hills.
This is going to be wonderful.
