My last day at Brora with another stroll through the dunes and back on the beach.
The Adventures of Skooby Blue (and Simon too)
Following the travels of a 2011 Brazilian Volkswagen Type 2 camper van around the UK. Zoom in/out on the map to see where we have visited. Click on the marker to find the link direct to that page. I will be adding more and more of my locations from the last few years over the coming weeks.

Coast walk - Golspie to Brora
A largely uneventful coast walk along a section of the John O' Groats way with some great clouds and grass blowing in the strong winds.
The walk took me past Dunrobin Castle and Carn Liath Broch.
Dunrobin Castle is a stately home in Sutherland, in the Highland area of Scotland, that serves as the family seat of the Earl of Sutherland, Chief of Clan Sutherland. Dunrobin's origins lie in the Middle Ages, but most of the present building and the gardens were added by Sir Charles Barry between 1835 and 1850.
Càrn Liath (English: Grey Cairn) is an Iron Age broch (Broch - a drystone hollow-walled structure found across Scotland).

Brora Beach
Updated Wed 10th
After a long drive further north into the east Highlands, I have arrived at my next stop for a few days, alongside the sandy Brora beach.
First set of pictures from a walk south towards the village of Brora. Followed by a set added on Wednesday from an early morning wonder and then a walk North along the coast.
