Edinburgh to Exeter

I'm sitting in a railway station, got a ticket for my destination, my suitcase and guitar in hand and every stop is neatly planned........

OK, no guitar but everything else is about right.  Having spent the best part of 7 weeks sailing from the south coast of England up to the North coast of Scotland, I am now heading back again on the train and it will take only 12 hours in total. 

My grandma is poorly, so I'm hot footing it down to Exeter to see her while she still knows who I am.  It's not been a good summer for elderly relatives.

I got the bus from a friendly little place called Whitehills this morning and I'm now in Aberdeen railway station waiting for the train to Edinburgh.  We sailed from the Shetland Islands down to the mainland in one go - over 150 miles which took from 9am Saturday morning to 1pm Sunday afternoon.  We had beautiful clear warm weather and the moon was shining brightly.

Back soon.
