Germans resume road trip after 4 week hold up.
A German couple finally bid farewell a remote Perthshire village yesterday, after spending a whole month there by mistake.
The teenage travellers from Bavaria, Oli Suft (19) and Julia Kumshier (19) left Bridge of Balgie in Glenlyon after freak weather scuppered their holiday plans.
The couple had been keen to see Scotland after falling for the scenery used in the recent James Bond film Skyfall.
So they took their camper on the ferry from Amsterdam to Newcastle and headed north.
At the end of February they embarked on a round-Scotland road trip before starting college later this summer.
Over two weeks they slowly travelled Scotland from east to west via the north coast and islands.
But their camper van adventure turned into a nightmare when on March 18 they got stuck in a snowstorm as they crossed a nine-mile stretch of untreated hill-pass near Ben Lawers by Loch Tay.
