OrcadesDays

Near Geo of Lincro

Took the bike (and a ferry) over to Westray. I headed to the south of the island and walked around the Point of Huro then cycled up to Rapness mill and walked along to the Castle o' Burrian and Stanger Head, where there was a raven on her nest. The 'castle' is a sea-stack. Quite a few around Orkney are called Castle this or that, must be confusing for visitors expecting a medieval keep. Then went up to Swartmill Bay and walked out to Spo Ness. Took some photos around ruins there and headed along the road in wind and rain. Given my not being up to Olympic standard yet, I headed back to the jetty. On the ferry back there was safety anouncement about mustard stations. I don't even like mustard!
