Just taking it all in.
You could sit here all day and just watch the weather change by the minute.
The weather in this part of Scotland is not without drama. To add to that we saw a pod of porpoises swim past. All a bit surreal!
My son had the patience to catch it. I just had to cook it with a wee dram on the side.
Didn't realise one could drive so far in the UK in one day.
