Just reached Inverness and now in the Caledonian Canal. We are now going South and West after weeks of going North. 725 nautical miles. Been wind on the head for days and very strong up here, no heat wave but getting some heat soon.
I was hoping that sailing would be easier now that you are in the Caledonian Canal and that maybe you would be in more sheltered waters for a while after a strenuous time on the high seas. It seems to me that the west coast might be much more rugged but of course I'm only guessing. I think of you both being lulled to sleep by the rhythm of the waves each night and waking to the bobbing of the boat in the morning and the sound of the seagulls overhead. When I walk on the beach, I think of you both out there somewhere on the water and its strange but also comforting. Are you sitting waiting for the next high tide or cooking breakfast at the moment? Poor old Nelson will go berserk when you eventually both walk in the door.
