Scotland Tour – Day 10

Today we explored the North West side of the island.

If you look carefully you can see the Atlantic Ocean to the left and the North Sea to the right.
The coast is very rugged

Eshaness Lighthouse

I was particularly keen to visit Eshaness as, several months ago, when this holiday was in the planning stages, I had to pick a place I had never been to and use it as a setting for a story. I chose Eshaness, did some research and wrote a story.

The dramatic coastline was formed 360 million years ago by a series of volcanoes.

  1. Can’t believe how lucky you have been with the weather. Spectacular scenery again. Liked the boat as a roof!
