On Holiday!

Greetings from the Highlands.

We’re back in our favourite place and already almost at the end of our stay. We came here with every expectation of rain and biting cold and so packed an abundance of books, art supplies and journals. We would settle in by the fire, hot chocolate in hand, and get creative.

But, as our national poet once said, “The best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men / Gang aft a-gley.”

Yet, sometimes things not going to plan can be the best result of all. Bar a few rainy showers, we have been blessed with sunshine and in the glories of autumn could not possibly remain inside any longer than necessary. So, we have been out and about once again, taking our explorations one layer deeper and having wonderful adventures.

Okay, so it is cold! Image: Jeff Costello-McFeat

We have discovered new castles, heard a talk by famous a TV presenter, lived like royalty and immersed ourselves in this spectacular location.

I shall be sharing the highlights with you next week, but until then:  Mar sin leat an-dràsta : good-bye for now.
