We were going to have lunch at Fort William, but we couldn’t find it so we had lunch at Ben Nevis Highland Centre instead. There was lots of tourist coaches there. Inside the centre was a souvenir shop and a restaurant. Mum had carrot and parsnip soup, while dad and I had lentil soup. The soup came with a bread roll that was a bit old and dry. I also had a turkey and salad (Spanish onion, lettuce, tomato, cucumber) sandwich and A2 had salmon and cream cheese....

On arrival at the apartment, we realised that the German Market had already opened even though it was only 5pm (someone earlier had told us it opened at 7pm). We briefly went around to see what food there was. It was mainly hot food such as sausages, crepes, various potato dishes, alcohol and chocolate, trinket stalls and stalls selling gingerbread and German Christmas cake, which has marzipan and raisins in it. The other part of the market had rides including a ice-skating rink. At a lower level there...
