Speyside Way

Today we walked a section of the Speyside Way starting at Cragganmore and heading north. For the lunch stop we found a bench down by the riverside – no midges.

Walking near Aviemore

It has got a bit warmer here today, the snow is melting, there is occasional rain, a gusty strong wind and not a lot of light. After watching Gravity on my iPad and dealing with a few things for Octagon, it was time for a walk in the woods around Aviemore.

I did not take my lunch or stove with me – it was back to the cottage for a pot of tea and watching the driving rain through the patio windows.
