Inveraray

A lovely place I visited a lot as a child, usually as a stop for lunch on the way to Oban from Greenock! I don't have photos from every occasion but these are a few from the family album.

First of all, the famous castle, of course! I took this (and the two below) in May 1968

The main shopping street

Some lads cooling off in the water!

The Inveraray Bridge on Loch Fyne, August 1968

A postcard I bought in May, 1973

The guest house where we stayed on that occasion.
I wrote to the daughter, Susan, for several years until we lost touch.
I wonder where she is now?
