uk_nick is on a distinguished road
Highlands and Islands

The plan was to meet Tim on route as I headed north, best get a flying start (Duxford Air Museum).



Running behind schedule, more speed needed (RAF Wittering).



First stop, Holy Island of Lindisfarne. Tides were timed perfectly for us to cross the causeway.





We caught the ferry from Scrabster (North Scotland) to Stromness (Orkney), staying there for 3 days. More neolithic ruins, tombs, standing stones than you can shake a stick at, plus a decent brewery (well worth a visit) and some spectacular cliffs and coastline to explore.
