Oban Travel Blogs

Picked up my friend at 11.10am on Saturday morning and we headed off from Motherwell. Joined the motorway and I know for the next 1 hour it would be a constant 60mph…great!! We travelled over the Erskine Bridge which has great views by the way!...then started gradually heading north..   Th…

Our final day we were up early....again....but only because we wanted to get some more time in Oban before having to catch our trains back to London.  So after a delicious breakfast of fresh homemade scones and tea (which cost us a whopping 50p total, by the way.  yeah, screw you Londo…

This weekend (10. - 12. March 2006) we did our first weekend trip with the International Society. We travelled to the West coast to visit the town (or should we say “village”?) called Oban ("little bay" in Gaelic), as well as the isles of Mull and Iona. We left Aberdeen on Friday evening…

I've always wanted to travel to Scotland, especially because my husband's ancestorial heritage is from Scotland, in the northwest. Absolutley beautiful, the castles, the lochs, the abbeys, the people and the rocky coastlines. We even experienced a Highland game while traversing about. A must see.

Where: Scotland From: Friday, October 19th Till: Thursday, October 25th Day 1. We spent the first night away on a ferry. Next day we've visit York and we've finished in Scotland. Day 2. Finally in Scotland. Today we visited Oban, the place where we were staying. Day 3. Today, we've visit a small village called: Fort William. On the way to Fort William, we had a few stops, for pictures of the landscape. Day 4. We did a walking on in isle of 15 yard. In a beautiful landscape.

Here are some pictures of Scotlands beautiful nature and impressive castles

Certainly not as extensive as I would have had it but the best I could do and still have a job when I got home. Four weeks in South-East Asia was once again with Eastern Michigan University, Cambodia was independant with most of the EMU group, then Colin and I split off and joined JenM in the UK.

Camping tour across Scotland by minibus

My pops has been to scotland roughly ten or more times and was eager to show me and my sibilings the country he fell in love with. We did an independant style of trip moving from hostel to hostel. We were in london for a few days before we took the train up to spend a week in scotland.
