This did surprise me on how flat it was compared to the rugged cliffs of Lands End in Cornwall. Even how close the inner hebrides looked ,I expected they were further away.
Visited Edinburgh and toured including visiting Ben Nevis. The popped over to Skye by boat (car ferry) no bridge back then.
I would love to go back some day but now live in the other end of the country.
See the memory lingers on
Yes it's flat at John o Groats, and I walk along the cliffs at Duncansby a couple of miles further on. The mountains are towards the West on the other side of Thurso on the A836 to Durness. I also go along there to Strathy Beach for walks with the dog and it's isolated with rough seas and caves. A wonderful place to explore.
These were taken along that way.

Morning All, It was a hard frost here too last night and this was what I found I had to walk on when I reached the woods. Thank goodness for Ice grips, I went back to the car and pulled them on over my boots
