Ullapool

Another stunning morning has dawned. Said goodbye to the Orkneys. But before we leave, a little more history, the Italian Church.
The Church was created by the Italian prisoners of war in 1943 to remind them of home.They were given 2 spare Nissan huts which they painted inside under the supervision of artist Dominica Chiocchetti.
Once back on the mainland it was a 6hr winding drive around the coast to Ullapool. The scenery changed from rolling hills, some with windfarms to rocky outcrops and stunning beaches.
Drove through flow country which is now a UNESCO area due to restoring and saving the peat.
Also went through the world heritage Geopark where there's gnice rock,the oldest type in the world.
The scenery was spectacular, wild and beautiful
