......and we are off! We headed out of Glasgow and took the motorway south to Ayrshire, where we trekked our way to Loch Ken. Unfortunately, the loch side locations where we hoped to stop were occupied; it was Saturday night, after all, so we continued to the quaint village of Haugh of Urr and visited the Laurie Arms where we had a couple of drinks and a very enjoyable dinner before settling in for the night in their car park.
