Grandtully Station Campsite, Pitlochry, Perthshire. (Day 2)

This morning anxiety levels were still high, but after a fractious nights sleep Angela decided to take to the water with an open mind, albeit a little nervously. All her fears were soon alleviated when we met with David from Emmaus Adventure.

He straight away put us at ease and we could tell the day would go well. Which it did. The only struggle was fitting into our wetsuits, bought a long time ago when we were a little slimmer. We ran through the self rescue, the part of the course that Angela was most bothered about and decided to wait until Friday to actually participate, although Angela did manage to fall out of her boat as we returned to the car. Show off! She can hear you laughing, Marge.


Back at the campsite, where there are just four of us staying tonight we grilled steak whilst admiring the beautiful display of thousands of Wood Anemones. Rabbits, unaware of our presence, happily nibbled on lush green shoots. 

We are tired tonight, hoping to sleep a little better before we 'do it all again tomorrow'.
