Travelled approx 50 miles today .Left Helmsdale having got the donation details of a woman called Suzanne who was in the pub last night , who had just started running from John o Groats to Lands end( for an ex service charity) 2 days ago ( high winds and severe cold forced her to abandon her run prematurely today ( She achieved 40 miles on the first day and but down to 16 on the second because of rthe weather) and with her support team she had booked into accommodation at the Bannockburn pub .We also bid farewell to a chatty campervanner from near Oban, travelling in the opposite direction to us and we drove on the A9
Stunning coastal views in cold sunshine, a series of attractive fishing harbours e.g. Lybster and some Celtic standing stones before ending our journey for today in Wick where we had the honour of being amongst the first to swim, steam and sauna in their brand new community pool which opened today!
Wick town centre was very run down in appearance .Will visit Wick
heritage museum tomorrow before heading for John o Groats
