Het leek me wel eens leuk om een keer in de herfst naar Schotland te gaan, dus besloot ik eindelijk de Cateran Trail te gaan lopen. Stond al even op mijn lijstje, maar ik vond de route altijd te kort voor de meivakantie. Nu dan maar in de herfst die kant uit. Hieronder mijn geschreven teksten al liggend in de tent vroeg in de avond. (Je moet wat als het bijna 14 uur lang donker is...😉)

Our typical day starts with breakfast at our Airbnb, then packing the car to head out. Today we could actually see where we had driven in the night. Junk everywhere and yet our cabin was so nice.
Our drive to San Francisco included driving through some of Californias wine country. The vineyards went on for miles and miles and were beautiful. Many places had rents set up for wine tastings.

Breakfast at the La Quinta was the best. It was like any other hotel breakfast but, just like any other kid, I LOVED the waffle maker. The waffles were in the shape of Texas! I want a waffle maker that makes waffles in the shape of WV!!

North Cyprus was invaded by Turkey in 1974 and has since then been occupied by Turkey. This situation has left North Cyprus somewhat isolated from the rest of Europe. From what I understand, Read on...

When youve grown up thinking anything past Bristol counts as the North, spending over 9 hours, on 4 different trains, makes you realise just how much more North there actually is in England! Thankfully, the whole journey (Plymouth to Bristol, to Birmingham, to Carlisle, to St Bees) went smoothly to plan, with just the very last train teasing us with its inability to keep the engine running (blocke Read on...
Had to take the hire car back today so decided to drive into the city, hand it in and then do some more city sightseeing before taking the bus back to the campsite.
Satnav took us straight to the car hire place. So glad Bob thought to bring the spare Satnav with us. Our old one which we use in the car, as we have a big vehicle version for use in the motorhome to hopefully avoid being taken down a Read on...
