April Showers…of Snow?
Had to go get my CT scan today which meant a three hour drive across to the ever so slightly larger hospital on the mainland…well I sai ‘I’ but it was actually my mum since I don’t know how to drive :S
But what came as a bit of a surprise, considering that we had a really nice warm sunny day only 3 or 4 days ago was the snow warnings for the road we were on :O
On the way there it was pretty scary in parts, but we got through fine and by the time we were heading home it was nice and clear but there were still some stunning scenes that I managed to snap while on the move.
In some places acroding to the news it was up in the 20 degree’s C only a few days ago in some of the places that now looked like this :/ such is the weather of the Highlands…trust it at your peril.
The CT scan was quite fun in the end
there was a nice Nurse and to be honest with all the deep breaths you needed to do while lying on the rather comfortable scanning bench I was even starting to fall asleep
lol The whole thing only took 20mins then the results will be with me in a couple weeks…kind of wish I could have seen the images but perhaps they’ll let me check them out later.
And now it’s windy VERY cold but gloriously sunny
very confused weather lol but at least the train and coach loads of tourists I saw have had a nice experiance of all the possible Highland weather…all in one day!

I wish I could have snow in April
Hope the CT scan results are good!
these are so breath taking did you play in the snow?
Beautiful mountains! I hope your results are good. I wish they would let me see the scans when I get something like that, but maybe it’s better that I don’t!
That’s lovely. I miss snow; we didn’t get nearly enough this year. I hope you are doing ok and will let us know how the tests went.
total jealous >.<
@Cestovatelka - I’ll know in a couple weeks, i’m sure they’ll be fine
Well it looks nice…but it’s also VERY cold lol the sun and springtime is better.
@passions_trapped - Hehe thanks…but no we just drove through it
@whyzat - Hahaha I hope i get to see them…they sound like they’ll be cool!
And it’s pretty tricky to get a good look inside yourself normally…not to mention painful lol
@lanney - Yea I’m fine now
And i’ll certainly post about it once I know the results.
Yea we didn’t get much snow this year…and this recent lot was a bit of a surprise even for us.
@fabolousclown - :P thought you might be.
Stunning view!
@SaintBlue1131 - i know you psted this to make me jealous !
Perfect weather for me since it’s extremely warm,humid and sunny here for WEEKS!! It’s one of the worse these few weeks sigh…
Grr… I need to add one more place to my travelling list now. Hmm… gotta save up more. You’re good at making people jealous, aren’t you?
Very nice shots, Bede! Here, every April is super hot…you’ll never be confused. kwi kwi
Hi Bede! Long time no anything haha .. Mother nature is crazy!
I hope the results come out good!
I love the pictures, it’s so beautiful there
Oh gotta love snow-covered mountains hehe
What beautiful views! Hope you’re okay.
@RestlessButterfly - Yea
It sure is.
@fabolousclown - Lol it didn’t last long like before
but it was fun to make your jealous again.
@Hdyhadon -
You don’t know how lucky you are…believe me you get tired of cold and wet much quicker than sunny and warm
Where have you been? i’ve not seen you about for ages!….managed to find something to keep yourself busy with again?
@I_love_Burma - Lol yea the Highlands are good at making people wanna visit them
I bet i’d complain about the heat pretty quickly too…but right now very hot sounds just right to me.
@jennylovve - Hey Jenn
How’s things it’s been too long…i’m always short of time no matter how much i seem to use or waste :/ I’ll try to check out your blog though and see how you are doing
@xdeelynnx - Yea
I’m sure i’ll be fine thanks, they were very eye catching…but kind of scary beacuse it was seriously cold and desolate feeling all of sudden.
@naughty_virgin - I’ll be fine I think thank you for asking
Glad you liked the shots.
