3. We don't like cities much so off the beaten track is where we end up.

You want off the beaten track, look up Altnaharrah, Scotland. It is miles and miles from anywhere. we spent a night at a B&B there. Nice place, lovely scenery, but I would not want to live there!

We spent a week in London, mostly in the museums (British, Victoria & Albert, Natural History) and I was feeling very worn out. Today we left and stopped at a RSPB reserve. While I am physically tired, I feel mentally restored. London was neat, but there are too many people and no wild areas.

I'm a month behind on my blog - between three weeks in Scotland with poor or no internet, taking thousands of pictures that have to be sorted and edited, and my computer dying along the way, I just have not been able to catch up. The pictures are safe on an external drive and I bought a new computer, so I will try to catch up before we climb on a ship and be without affordable internet for two weeks.
