Sunday 23rd April 2017 69 miles travelled
Cycle ride around Loch Morlich first thing
Coffee at Glenmore view cafe
Shopping in Aviemore , long socks , warm gloves and groceries purchased , warned by assistant that the ' lambing storms ' are starting tomorrow , (more predictable re snowy wintry weather than at Xmas)
Black Isles tour commenced , going back in time ....
Conachry point visited , where the biggest herd of bottle nose dolphins can be found playing in the Moray Firth (most loyal dolphins are called jig saw and rhubarb ) v windy blustery cold ,long queue for the sole ice cream van on a Sunday afternoon ...
Camped at N Sutor headland start of the Hugh Miller ( archeologist botanist artist architect , general renaissance bloke ) trail ,we walked 1.75 miles down hill along coast and into Cromarty
Brilliant late afternoon sunshine
Drinks in Cromarty inn, with subdued looking bar person ...
Back up hillside enjoying fab views of Cromarty Firth and the oil rigs ( 6 in total )
TV reception poor on headland , wild winds , caught just half of ' line of duty' and watched game of thrones ( great sets, but clunky dialogue and slow pace , not to mention type casting of both men and women )
