Bettyhill - Christmas 04

H and I went up to see the Bids on the far north coast of the Highlands of Scotland for Christmas. We took the Caledonian Sleeper train London to Inverness - it's an excellent way to travel! The weather was very seasonal, with frequent snow blizzards and a bitingly cold wind throughout the fortnight.

Stroll around Farr Bay

The snow had melted, but the cold wind continued. I took a walk from around Farr Bay and took a few photos.

Good surf.
