The sun comes out and I see the true beauty of the village of Drumnadrochit. The Great Glen Way trail emerges from the woods and I see a sign for the local pub, and decide to come back here for dinner and a couple of pints.<\/p>\n\n\n<script type=\"text\/plain\" data-tcf=\"waiting-for-consent\" data-id=\"22826\" data-bid=\"1\">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<\/script>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First though I need to find my accomodations for the next couple of nights. The walk through town was about a 1\/2 mile or so before I come to the village square. Tour buses come and go as all manner of people are enjoying drinks on the green. A fine young lad is playing bagpipes, a wonderful introduction to this beautiful area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My B&amp;B is right in the square. I get settled in quickly, shower, then walk right back to the pub. This was my first time trying haggis, and I kick myself for not having it earlier. Simply amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AF9_9Wm3D1Y?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I did not want to leave the comfort I found at the Glenmoriston Hotel.
