A little closer to home - Inverness and Beauly
Darkness and rain on the roof encourages us to stay in bed a little longer this morning. Eventually up about 8 - gloomy daylight through bedroom window not much earlier. Cheryl made rice cream for dessert tonight and I washed the car. Showers and left the lodge a little after 9. Roads very wet after over night rain. Rain had stopped and so we headed north through Beauly once again and took A9 skirting around Beauly Firth. Crossed ...
A trek across the Highlands to the Isle of Skye
Up early and awaited first light which was about 7.30. Sun rose some time after that. Finally away from lodge after 9 and headed north via Beauly and Garvey on the A85 heading for the Isle of Skye in Scotland's far north west. This route takes us into some remote Scottish highlands and at some points along the way the car is recording 0° outside - Any moisture on side windows freezes and parts of windscreen not being warmed by demister frozen as well. ...

It was much less well preserved than Carn ...
Jimmy's coastal walk : day 34
... reaching the village at 6.30pm.
This was my longest walk so far, 26.7 miles, and in a pair of relatively new shoes my feet were complaining as evidenced by several blisters.
