Walking to the summit of Craigellachie
The day started off mild and sunny here, so taking advantage of the sun I headed up Craigellachie – which overlooks Scandinavian Village. It is a fairly straightforward walk, but most of it is up until you reach the “flatish” summit.
I also made a mistake, yesterday was not my coldest day. The summit and approaches were still frozen and icy, add the wind chill from the strong steady wind and it was several degrees below zero. But sunny.
One benefit of a sub-zero summit was that the boggy, muddy path was frozen so no wet and muddy boots on my return.

Lunch – Edinburgh
I stopped off on the way to Aviemore to buy Jeremy lunch. The pub we like, The Footlights, has had yet another make over!
Camping at the hotel!
I decided to stay at a hotel nearer to where Jeremy is now living in Edinburgh – the Budget Ibis. The rooms are basic, but fine for a night or two and reasonably cheap. They do not however supply a kettle – so I packed my own and included porridge, homemade raspberry jam and fresh coffee for breakfast.
My lightweight camping cook set.
The cable and adaptor is for my iphone so I could watch videos on the TV.
The day turned out to be damp, cold and overcast so we ended up watching The Grand Tour and the Saints verses the Cardinals at Jeremy’s flat – hence this is Today’s Photo!

On the way to Scotland
I am on my way to spend the weekend in Edinburgh with Jeremy, leaving Michael to house sit and feed the cats. I stopped to take this photo on the nearly deserted A68.
