White Out

We walked from Sandwood Bay car park this afternoon onto the hill which was completely shrouded in mist ( a white out). we arrived at the swimming pool, good it was open - Loch Balchrick. so I settled down with my waterproof mat to sit on, three layers of warm cloths, and over me was a igloo type thing called bothy2 ( John takes on the hill in case children develop hypothermia) its great bubble keeping out the rain and wind, with a wee window to watch the swimmer.
I was really warm while my bold lad did 22 laps and 20 minutes of fresh water swimming.
then we went to visit a friend and had home made scones...
yip another typical day up in the north.
