More Callanish

As an addition to the previous post I thought I would post a few more photos of the Callanish standing stones that we visited on our tour through the Western Isles a few weeks ago....

Although it looks deserted, there were actually quite a lot of visitors milling around and I had to position myself carefully to hide them behind stones so that they couldn't be seen in the photos!

Photohunt - One

One of the many standing stones at Callanish, Isle of Lewis (with one sneaky person behind it!)

.....and just to let you see the bigger picture, here's one of the whole site -

Photohunt - Painted

The brightly painted houses of Tobermory.

Photohunt - Together

The girlies! Friends for over 30 years, we met when we started university and we try to get together about once a year. This photo was taken a couple of years ago when one of the quintet got married.

Photohunt - backwards

This picture was taken a couple of months ago as we descended Ben Ledi.
The best views were looking backwards towards the summit........

Driesh and Mayar

Driesh and Mayar are two munros (mountains over 3000ft) standing close together at the head of Glen Doll.
They are usually climbed together by heading up the Kilbo path that runs between the two then heading off to either side to take in the two hills. On our day out yesterday, we approached from a different angle by heading up the very steep Corrie Fee (a much harder but more interesting approach) then returning by the Kilbo path.
