14.54 miles – 5hrs 15 mins (4hrs 42mins walking) Pace 3.1mph B&B Portland Arms
Our first day of walking with full rucksacks and the whole way on the A99. We became Scottish Nationalists for the day as a rally convoy of Scottish nationalist supporters created a constant stream of vehicles all carrying Scottish flags and banners and sounding their horns, which gave us plenty of people to wave at. Lynn’s arm started to ache – she said she felt like the Queen (but not the Scottish nationalist bit – obviously). Lybster has a lovely small harbour and we watched a catch of crab being unloaded. A fine sunny day but the wind is still very cold.

Hi Steve and Lynn
Good to see the epic walk start well, hopefully the wind will ease or at least warm up. Enjoying the blog, it’s now added to my breakfast reading routine. 😊👍
