We walked out along the coast, leaving the tourist area behind. There were even two caches along our route – the most northerly mainland caches.

Wick

We stopped here mainly to eat, but we also visited the “shortest street”

Ebenezer Place

Ebenezer Place

Ebenezer Place was built in 1883 and measures only 6 ft 9 in (2.06 m) long. It has only one address: No 1.

It was also the location of our last geocache of this holiday.
