Hi guys,
Last stop of the first day was in Fort William. At the harbour you can eat delicious Fish & Chips and if you walk up the hill you will have an amazing view.
Sights:
1. Jacobite Steam Train: Scenic two hour run between Fort William and Mallaig. Adult/child day return: £32/£18 (May to August) - Includes Glen Finnan Viaduct known from Harry Potter.
Ben Nevis Distillery: Guided tour Adult/child £4/£2.
If your looking for a affordable place to sleep, check out: Spean Bridge hotel. Overall, its quite OK.. rooms are affordable, clean and there are possibilities to get breakfast and dinner.. (quality is overall not really high ;) but it will do..) There is a bar where you can enjoy life music and if you go up the hill there is this cute diner at the train stop.

Hi guys,
To come back on the village Kilmartin I told you about yesterday. It's really small, but if you stop for a meal in the Kilmartin Hotel you will be amazed! ;) Extended menu for good prices... They will serve you well and after dinner you can have the Scottish experience: Sharing a Pint with locals at the fire place.
Lochgilphead PA31 8RQ. Tel: 01546 510 250

Next to the hotel there is a scary little church. If you go to the back of the graveyard, there is a small chapel with headstones from 1600. Typical Scottish to make this a tourist spot ;)
If you're lucky enough to spend a holiday in Rogoznica, Croatia, I can advise you a very cheap but still amazing restaurant: Siesta. I know, it's a weird name for a restaurant in Croatia (especially because the owner is Italian and called Mario^^), but don't bother and go there. It offers student friendly prices and portions, as you can have a giant pizza for twenty Kuna what is approximately 2,50 € . Also, if you go there, have a Scampi Cocktail as starter! It's the best I ever had and cost seven Kuna (app. 1 Euro). It's always fresh and very tasty. The restaurant itself is very nice as the terrace is placed under a vine stock and you're having a view on the 'Marina Frappa', the harbor of Rogoznica with its luxury boats and ships, while having dinner.
If you go there, send best greetings to Mario from the german rabbit ;) xxx Heidi
