SCOTLAND AND SKYE HOLIDAY 26 MAY 2023

 Our last day and we were blessed with sunshine, we drove to West Scrafton and did a 6 mile walk called Great Haw. So the book that Roy's got the walk from is 30 years old, we bought it cheap in Ripon! First half was fine, when I'd put Roy right with his map reading! He took over and the rest of the hike was quite rough to put it mildly, spongy moorland with hidden pools, holes and airy fairy directions! Lunch at the sheep fold where we saw two sets of geese at a small stream with lots of tiny goslings which they immediately hid in the heather. But the weather was superb so a good walk!

Our wonderful holiday ended with a lovely meal at the Golden Lion in Leyburn.
