    Wick

    From Helmsdale, it was even further north to the old Viking seaport of Wick. Here we are even further north in terms of latitude than Alaska, so we are a long way from home. Tomorrow, when we go to the Orkneys, we are even further north.

    It is now 10:00pm here and the sun is yet to go down. It's another hour to go yet. In winter, the sun rises here at 9:00am and sets at 3:00pm.

    In Wick, we went on a tour of the Old Pulteney Whiskey Distillery and had a tasting. Seeing the whiskey made was interesting and the tasting was good as well, but we are not converts.
