We made it to JOG, stopping at Lidl and Tesco at Wick on the way. Scenery getting very highland now, even spotted our first highland coo. The gorse is a glorious bright yellow on every hillside.
A grey wet start turned into a day of sunshine and showers. As we approached JOG there was a great panoramic view of the Orkney Islands in the afternoon sunshine. The campsite is right on the beach with great views of the islands and gannets diving into the sea for fish. The evening sky has cleared so it should be a nice sunset later.
Margaret Payne texted to say she saw on news that we may have northern lights in Scotland tonite. That really would be a bonus, we certainly could not have a better chance any further north!
