This photo album shows pirate attacks on Loch Ness, the man who knows the truth about the Loch Ness monster, sunshine in Scotland and happy bunnies dreaming of bella vita in Italy :)

A thousand thanks to Ali & Sue, Emily, the vetting team, the trail angels at Challenge Control and Tarfside, Gordon Menzies for keeping up the good work. Also expressing my thanks to Martin Banfield for printing a complete set of map sheets, Ian Shiel and Melanie from Cougie for their catering service, Rod Ross for paying the lunch bill in the Marine Hotel in Stonehaven and all the friendly Scots who made us feeling at home in their home country.

Delighted you enjoyed the album, Neil and thank you for installing a clickable link to my library. A technical mystery to me ;)

Thanks for sharing these great photos. It was lovely to meet you both.

Hi Emma & Louise,

After a hard day´s walk from Glen Gairn to the Forest of Birse searching in vain for a decent camping spot it was a pleasant surprise at the end of the day to bump into such lovely & jolly ladies. Your contagious laughter was cheering us up.


Looking forward to seeing you both again.

Markus

Lovely pictures, Marcus. Thank you.

Thank you, Kirsten. Have also enjoyed browsing your Flickr album. That must have been a real cracker of a route!

Markus

Great pictures Markus. What is the early part of your route?
