Away from the mainland.


Over the last few days Joe and I have been working our way through the southern Munros, which a times have felt like were 'bagging' hills for that sake. I guess that is the down side of walking a continuous round, there can be times where it is difficult to take it all in because you have to stick to a schedule................................. We are still having loads of fun going to so many new place and meeting so many great people..................................... On our return from walking over 5 Munros in Mamlorn hills; we had another chance encounter with our new friend 'Andy Johnston'. He invited us in to his nice Mercedes Sprinter Camper van (not as nice as our rusty orange transit) for a drink and a sandwich, he then agreed to join us for a hill the next day.(Ben Chonzie) having someone join us from a day is a great motivational boost, that day we then went on to walk up Ben Vorlich, Stuc a' Chroin and Ben Lomond, finally getting to sleep around 1.30am................................................................................. We are now relaxing on the coast on the Isle of Mull, after walking up the impressive Ben Cruachan, where we plan to walk up Ben More and spend the rest of the day enjoying this great little isle...................................................... Over the next week we are excited about walking and climbing the hills of Knoydart and Skye.
