We had planned two short hops, of only seven miles each, into our early itinerary. This was the second of them. After this, we step it up a bit. After a fantastic breakfast, we got our boots from the drying room, to find them quite some way short of dry. Never mind, we won't be getting another day quite as wet as yesterday, will we? Wrong again. Even with gaiters on from the very start, the socks were wet again within two hours; the rain seemed extra-penetrating this morning. The walk to Rowardennan within touching distance of the shore of Loch Lomond should have been utterly outstanding, but the horizontal rain sort of took the edge off it. The paths underfoot are currently a series of muddy, sloshy pools, too. We are so looking forward to being able to walk without rain gear for an hour or two!
