A little closer to home - Inverness and Beauly
... Nairn - a lovely township sitting right on the Moray Firth. Pretty seaside park and interesting clock tower in the centre of town. More narrow streets to negotiate in this very old settlement. Saw some interesting animals during our drive this morning. A flock of all black sheep and then a yard of free range chickens caught our eye just outside Beauly. A muddy field full of huge pigs on the way to Nairn and then a yard of lamas near ...
A trek across the Highlands to the Isle of Skye
... Scotland. Again rivers and streams are raging full of recent rainfall. Not far from water anywhere along this route. Crossed the very impressive bridge linking the mainland to the Isle at Kyle Of Lochalsh and pushed on across the Isle Of Skye towards Portree.

Jimmy's coastal walk : day 34
This is likely to be my final stint of three consecutive days walking for 2012. Soon the clocks will change, bringing dark evenings even earlier. I missed the opportunity to walk during the sunny, settled weather at the beginning of October due to other commitments. I had hoped to walk last week but a very wet forecast which brought flooding to the north made me postpone my plan.
Setting off on a Monday ...
