Inverness to Thurso

After a restful two nights, it was time to get in the car again.

We stopped first at Dornoch and could not miss seeing this ship which carries 4000 passengers and 1400 crew. Quite a number of passengers were wandering around the town.

This is the same photo but the pole was erased by the software on the phone.

What look like oil rigs in the distance.

We stopped here to look at the view but there wasn't much to see. The railway to Thurso runs along the coast and has the best views.

Sculptures at Balintore.

Heading north across the moors to Thurso. It's bleak up there.

We arrived at our hotel at Scrabster near Thurso.

A car ferry goes from this harbour to the Orkneys. I could not get rid of this pole.

We have an excellent view of the harbour from our hotel room.

Marianne has been fascinated by the cranes loading and unloading these logs.

Today we have taken the day off with no travel beyond nearby Thurso. We did some washing and I did my aqua therapy exercises in the local pool. It is indoors and the water was warm.
