Caught car ferry over this morning (i had totally forgotten i get seasick .... groan) Very happy to get here and the weather was very kind so not looking fwd to return journey if it is rough! Did about a billion things this arvo but all prehistoric (no castles in sight yay!). Saw inside a Cairn from about 3000BC which had Viking graffiti which was kinda funny cos it said stuff like “i carved these runes up very high” on a high bit of stone LMAO Some vikings took shelter here for 3 days (way after it was created) and got rather bored :D
Also saw rings of standing stones older than stone henge and 2 prehistoric villages – one of which still had all the stone furniture inside (untouched)! Absolutely amazing stuff!! Totally makes you want to be an archaeologist! Not to mention driving around the beautiful country side of green grass and continuous lochs and ocean and causeways and cliffs and cows :) We have had beautiful sunny weather – tho the wind was been pretty constant but i guess you get that when you are on a little island in the north sea :)

Well, well, well! You do move around quickly. About time you posted some more. We thought for a moment you had settled in Poland!
Sounds/looks like you are having a fantastic time. Keeping a close eye on your journey. Still green with envy, but wishing you a safe and happy remainder of the trip.
