Azub Six

I should ride more, I have become lazy over the last half year. Though, I managed to ride a few times in Scotland this year.

This photo is taken in the South Locks area of Isle of Lewis.

Stunning bit of the world. 

Uig bothy

Bothy

I have tried for three years to find Mangersta Bothy, aka Eagle’s Nest. The first two years I just went from memory and old maps, mainly no clue of where it would be other than in the Uig area or there about.

This year I found a blog post with a better description of where it would be. Looked on the map and narrowed it further down, and off we went.

I had led us in the right direction and just as I said to Peli I think it should be in this vicinity. She said – there it is! She had spotted the skylight window.

A walk to the hills

Spend a few days in Scotland and had a walk to the hills.

I stopped near this path, just to let the mutt out for a rest as we have been driving for a long time.

Only after we got home I learned that the hill in the background is called Dumyat Hil (Scottish Gaelic: Dùn Mhèad).
