We rolled into Grantown-on-Spey yesterday afternoon and were greeted with the best weather we've had so far since Justin and Nathan arrived.
Grantown is a pretty quiet, small town, though it's the capital of Strathspey. We had a nice walk around the town and in the vicinity of Castle Grant, though it is a private residence these days and we weren't able to get too close.
As Justin and Nathan are Grants, they are certainly enjoying seeing their roots, though they're having a bit of a Malkovich, MalkovichMalkovich-Malkovich-type experience as they're name is literally everywhere!
We came down to nearby Aviemore this morning, which is a bit more of a touristy destination, to do some laundry and hop online, though net cafe's are still far harder to come by here than in Ireland, somewhat suprisingly. We eventually found a hostel outside town that has a single terminal, though.
Anyways, time is running out on my connection here for now, so I'll update more later.
