Clouds above Ben Nevis lifted just as I arrived at Neptune's Staircase on the Caledonian canal. It is Scotlands longest staircase lock. Caledonian Bears in the foreground produced handmade Teddy Bears in tartan costumes at the time this photograph was taken (I think they have moved to other premises nearby since).
