A PRECURSOR TO OUR TRIP UP NORTH

We leave for Nairn next Wednesday, but on Monday last week we travelled to Portpatrick for a couple of days. This was mainly Janet's idea, as she had visited there about 30 years ago. From Peebles, this is a journey of about 130 miles.

We were lucky with the weather, and although it was very windy, we had sun and blue skies.

We also visited the Mull of Galloway, this being the most southerly point of mainland Scotland.

Portpatrick is a lovely place to visit for a couple of days and our hotel - the Harbour House Hotel - is recommended.

So I thought I'd post again on this blog and also try adding a couple of photos of our trip away.
