Journyd

First glimpses of Nairn! We are staying at a lovely B&B for the next 3 nights on the coast, so as soon as we checked in we made a beeline for the beach, despite it being just 55 degrees outside! Such a lovely coastline, and a sweet little path from the hotel leading us down. It was low tide - beautiful rocks and seaweed!
Travel note: we decided to train from Edinburgh to Inverness, and then rent a car from Inverness. But our train was cancelled after the first three stops due to a problem on the line, so we had to wait over an hour at the Perth station while they got a bus to come pick us up! Thanks for taking care of us - everyone was so kind and made sure we got where we needed to go.

Another full day exploring the Faroe Islands - from Gjogv to Saksun to Witches Finger - in the sun, rain, wind and clouds. When the sun comes out the green is so green! We didn’t let the weather stop us - brought all the gear and used it all. My fav purchases in preparation: OR winter hiking pants that are fleece-lined and the water just beads right off of, and Pendleton Chelsea rain boots - no worries for puddles or mud.
