On Monday the 16th of September we picked up our rental car and Josh began his excellent driving on the other side of the road. On this day our final destination was Pitlochry for two nights. From Stirling we headed out on the A9 northeast through Perth and onwards to Pitlochry with a side trip along the A827. At the last round about by Perth we pulled in a Service station to fill the gas tank. That Service station was loaded with cars and large semi trucks! Yikes! All along the way we were thanking our LORD again for such fine weather and his great care for us.

Our first planned stop for the day 10 miles from Pitlochry was Iain Burnett Highland Chocolatier which was just 5 minutes off the A-9.

Iain created his special Chocolate Kitchen and magical chocolate shop in a small village in Highland Perthshire, an area renowned for its dairies, berries, honey, and natural beauty. It took 3 years and 120 variations of recipe and techniques to create the first Velvet Truffle. His team comes from local families that share the passion for craftsmanship and his apprentice chocolatiers train for over 3 years.

The Chocolate Lounge was fun and unique.

After being seated in the Chocolate Lounge it took some time to decide on what to order. It was not easy to make our choices.

Three of us chose the 4 piece selection of Chocolates.

I decided to go with the All Things Chocolate Experience! Thick dark hot chocolate, a Salted Caramel Dark Heart, Dark Chocolate Cake and a Coffee. I did share my cake.

After we indulged we enjoyed poking around their gift shop and chocolate shop.

We made a few purchases and it was time to head further out on the A827 to Kenmore. More on that journey next.
