Tuesday 8th October 2013
Another stunning day, warm, sunny and dry.
John O Groats today, the most beautiful scenery again. Surprised to see a harbour at JOGs, used mostly these days for pleasure boat trips to the Orkney & Shetland Islands. A little breezy here but nothing like we had been warned about.
Stayed long enough for lunch, haggis again and a pint of dark ness this time.
On return trip stopped and walked to a Clearance Village Brora, this was a long steep walk almost to the waters edge. I had not heard of these Villages before, important part of Scottish history. The small islands surrounding Scotland were also affected.
