Today we left Muir on Ord for John o Groats - in theory the northernmost point of the mainland. It was a great drive up to there with a very dramatic coastline. J o G is a little tacky but less so than Lands End. No charge for parking or to get the obligatory photo at the sign.
On the way back dropped into Mey Castle, the Queen Mothers residence. Charles and Camilla use it now, but they were not home, so alas, no cuppa with them.
The drive back was very thrilling...the main highway up north is one lane with a passing place every 500 metres or so. Luckily there was not much traffic!
We then went to the scene of the Battle of Culloden. We walked part of the battlefield and gained an appreciation for the scale of the battle.
We then returned our local for dinner.
