Nessie
... to snow quite heavily,we all went outside and well snowballs at 20 paces did occur with Sarah getting a good one in on G. The girls and I got brave and went around to the back of the Abbey in the dark to the monks graveyard, it was really eerie in the snow, Sarah took a few photos with her camera and when the flash went off it was a funny red glow and we got a bit spooked and sort of hurried back to the apartment without looking ...

... It feels nice to be the one awake and not the one laying in bed wishing they would shut up. Welcome to the world of hostels!
I set off from the hostel with Clive and Rosie, stopping just outside to take a photo of them in front of the hostel, it still looks dark in the photo! I guess it is as it's only 07:00.
I leave Clive and Rosie behind going up the first hill and set off on my own pace. After about 30 minutes Richard catches me up and we Spend ...
