nethybridge - part1

i've said part one cos im sure ill want to upload some photos when i get home. we're having a great time up here. so far ive seen lots of red squirrels, a baby deer, a bat, osprey and her chicks, a woodpecker, lots of other birds that i dont know.
Cara has finally tired herself out after days of running constantly.
we climbed a hill yesterday - Tom Thumper. its less than 600m but it was a mountain to me. i just loved being in the wild with no-one around and views of mountains. We've been for some great forrest walks round nethy which have been good fun apart from the midgeys - i hope the bites clear away before Hazels wedding! i have counted 16 on my face alone. Havent counted the ones on my bottom... stupid hipsters!
Hoping to go up to Muir of ord and beyond tomorrow to visit my aunt cathie and uncle willie and also to see Giles my old flatmate who has relocated to the same village!
Anyway I best get back to ... well doing nothing really :-)

Glad you were able to enjoy some of the great outdoors (got your postcard too, but it's not real unless it's on your blog!). We are just back from France, which was also nicely spread around and involved lots of sightseeing.
