Our Scotland 2018 travelogue continues as we return from the Isle of Mull to Scotland’s mainland headed toward Kyle of Lochalsh, our destination for the day. We stop for a pub lunch in Oban, drive the stunningly scenic ‘Road to Skye’ through Glen Shiel, and stop at famous Eilean Donan Castle before settling in for the night at comfortable Balmacara Hotel.
