350 day streak. Been learning #ScottishGaelic for almost a year now. I sprinkle it with #IrishGaeilge but I really want to go back to #Scotland and do the #NC500 and the #OuterHebrides.

NORTH COAST 500 by Clare O'Brien โScotlandโs ultimate road tripโฆstunning coastal scenery, white sandy beaches, rugged mountains, remote fishing villages, hidden gems, and a wealth of unforgettable experiences.โ Released from clockwork time and tide, they come to play. To race on thunderwheels, to bag the mountains, take the trophies home, to pin the light on Instagram. None of that is real. They think they make the most of us, our big wild skies, unfathomable lives. Complete the circle, log the time they spent, count the cash they didnโt. When the weather closes in they will return us to ourselves, a tattered library book. The land they borrowed licks its wounds and weeps. In spring they will come back.
For #poemsabout : this was in Scots litmag 'Northwords Now' last year. Sparked by how the land, the wildlife, the people of the #scottishhighlands feel about increasing over-tourism. Do we give #consent?

This is a typical Scottish single track road running over a mountain pass. Itโs February so the greenery is not yet showing through. There is a narrow bridge that the road passes over. There are low hills in the distance.
Going up the Bealach Na Ba and stopped for a picture at this bridge.
The road on this side gets very narrow with almost cliff like edges and few passing places.
On the top of the pass and beyond the road has been resurfaced and you only need to deal with the hairpin bends.

De uitgezoomde versie van de eerste foto, waarbij het Heksenboter te zien is in een omgeving van mossen en varens.
Voor #Dag17 van #KleurInDeNatuur is gekozen voor de mooie kleur #KanarieGeel rgb 230,220,060. Deze Heksenboter (volgens internet) komt wel in de buurt denk ik. Fotoโs zijn gemaakt bij Corrieshalloch Gorge langs de #NC500 in Schotland

When visiting Scotland's historic castles, do you prefer to do the tour and read every information board or soak up the atmosphere and imagine the stories these walls could tell?
Both options are here, when you stay with us!
How do you explore? ๐

Dat is inderdaad wel een uitdaging in #Schotland, rijden op single road tracks met de passing places, ook nog links rijden en met 'Hyacinth' - mind the pedestrian - naast je ๐จ.
Maar ook geweldig mooi, een overweldigende natuur.
