    Over the top!

    23 maj, Skottland ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C

    Travelled from Durness to Castletown, Thurso today along a lot of single track roads that hugged the coast. First stop was Balnakeil beach. If you look closely you will see cows wandering around on the sand! There was an old church and graveyard next to the beach.
    Quick stop at the John Lennon memorial which was pretty uninspiring.
    More scenic vistas including a cliff top where we could have gone on a zip line or bungee jumped if we were so inclined. Decided that we didn't have time.😄
    Saw Elephant Rock, Verrick Castle and Strathy Point lighthouse on the way. As we neared Thurso the land became much more agricultural. Stayed in The Old Manse which was lovely.

    ResenärWhat was the connection with John Lennon ? A song perhaps? Lovely pics

    ResenärJohn Lennon used to holiday in Durness with his family when he was a boy. Apparently cousins lived in the area. The song 'In My Life' was inspired by his memories of holidays in Durness.
