Beautiful day today so went for a walk up Flowerdale to see the falls.

Start of walk...


Flowerdale House, owned by McKenzie of Gairloch, 17th Laird of Gairloch.


Halfway up Mermaid shifted an old fallen tree for me...


Getting higher...


Flowerdale falls.


For a view like this, it's well worth the climb...

Nice pics Cam, looks great when the weather is good, which seems rare in scotland, TD was right, you are a hardy lot, Your peachy is easily pleased, Smiling away, what a jem

That is because Cam has just disappeared over the edge.
Strong ole bird though, look at the way she collects logs for the fire.
Someone better tell her why she has not found any treasure yet, "yer motors fallen off that metal detector" :Crazy:

I watch them on vistasur beach with them metal detectors, early morning, he ends up with a bag of stuff every day, dont know what it is but he is bang at it, could be sand no ?

Probably your old paint tin lids that you said to gran kidz "here you are kidz Granddad bought you a new frizzbe" tight ass.

Damn, caught again, I might get a flood lit detector, and go down early, All them euros and rolex watches, i could retire early,

This is Gairloch, where we're staying...

Too late for you to retire early mate.

I did enjoy the walk and if I know he is taking my photo I pose. He does catch me out sometimes and I don't always like the result lol.

Bloody Poser.

Isle of Skye could be La Gomera then, on a different latitude. Cant see any boats out there, all moored up in the marinas probably. Bit like where mine is really, only about three of us ever venture out. Mine has done about 250 nautical miles this year so far, high mileage then!

Back home again, what a shame. We had a great time!
Here's some more piccies...
Red Point beach.


Memorial to "The Blind Piper" Iain Dall Mackay. Piper to McKenzie of Gairloch.


Detail on memorial in English and Gaelic...


Victorian Post Box still in use...



There's a bit on your lip...




That's all folks!

Nice photo's Cam, Red point beach, not a surfer in sight, I can imagine you two with a motor home, sat looking out at all the sights you find, No traffic up there, Wild camping, Great,

I agree it does look lovely and even the idea of camping sounds nice but not in a tent. :Not me Guv:

I'd love a motor home but they're way too pricey for me Reg.

I'm like you now Gypsy, tenting's too rough. I like my comforts now.

I agree not a tent. I love a isolated beach,just need the sunshine.

Yeh, Bugger that canvas job,

Those bloody motorhomes cost a fortune to rent ( between 700-900 a week!!!!) And you have diesel on top of that, you can't have a few drinks without worrying about driving the next day, you have to drive, you are living on top of each other, you have to find campsites for electricity, emptying toilets etc, if someone farts, you can't get away from it, ( the same applies for having a bum syrup), it's impossible to get a parking space, you're charged a fortune going through tolls, and a lot of them are plain ugly!
