"they may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM!"

Bridge of Allen is a lovely little town with some nice stone buildings...

The millrace from the bridge that gives the town its name...

For some reason this reminded me of the mural's that you often see around the Fuentes in villages in Spain??

Whilst at Rosehearty, we had a look at a new "Aire" that seems to have been 'organised' by CAMPRA....(on Search4sites)

It looks very nice and if we had seen it later in the day we would certainly have stayed there.

Moved on and had lunch at the carpark next to the Banff Links caravan site.
Lovely beach with loads of surfers & SUP's

IMG_20210821_132250.jpg


Passed a field with a crop of purple flowers???
IMG_20210821_120557.jpg


Had a look at Cullen, the home of " Cullen Skink" and decided to overnight here..

Again a nice harbour...

If you zoom in beyond the headland to the left of the image, you can just make out some hills on the horizon. A local told us this was Wick!

If you want a good Cullen Skink, I can recommend the Cullen Bay Hotel , on the left as you leave town.

Nice amenity.
An evening stroll on the beach after most of the Sunny Sunday afternoon crowds had gone.

Really struggling with forum lately. Tried to like photos but reaction buttons don't work. :(.

It's threads with photos on. :(
That's such a shame as you can see forum and photos are working fine, for others, can you clear some cookies or something to get your phone working properly.
So frustrating not being able to post photos.

we were there yesterday too. Parked up in the local car park beside the playing field
We grabbed the last place on the CL Bogroy Croft. Nice quiet site with 300 metre walk along the river to the bridge.

Sooner or later we will meet another MHF member. Our windscreen sticker is on display but no-one bites. Maybe they were fore warned to keep clear😎
 
Headed south, away from the coast this morning. It's amazing how quickly the scenery changes up here.
Coffee time on A940 near Grantown on Spey...

I don't do many photos of food but here is our Tea..
IMG_20210823_195023.jpg


Mixed meats and Avacado, home made coleslaw and a Feta cheese and Omega Seed salad.
The reason we had this tonight is that this is where we are...
IMG_20210823_160640.jpg

and a certain someone is in residence and we thought she might just drop in for tea with us :Smile: :giggle:.

Sadly not :cry:

Went for a stroll afterwards...
The I K Brunel designed bridge that crosses the Dee to the Castle gates..
