    As we had packed the majority of our bags the night before, we had a pretty chill morning. However, we had to be out of the accommodation by 10am. M&C were gracious to offer us a ride to the airport as they were on the same flight. We left our luggage in the car, and went off to explore more of Tórshavn. We finally found the bakery C had told us about and picked up some tasty treats 😋.

    We reconvened at 12:30pm to leave for the airport. We were a few minutes early and explored the cemetery, which for a country with very few trees, was the most wooded one I've ever seen.

    This time when we took the mountain ridge road, we could see the views previously veiled in fog. This view included a bright rainbow 🌈😍. Once at the airport we were quick to drop off the luggage and pass through security. It had a similar feel to passing through Victoria, BC airport.

    Without much adou, we were headed back to Edinburgh. Soon after our arrival R picked us up as we were renting their camper van for the week to travel the Scottish North Coast roads. Once loaded up, we were off, heading west to start the tour. Other than a stop in Falkirk for some provisions, we carried on till nightfall. Unfortunately the camp ground we planned for the night closed hours earlier, so we opted to sleep in a pullout to rest for the night. 😴 The lulling of lorries all night long was an unexpected start to the trip 😔.
