Up a hill :)
Wow... didn't expect that many comments on my first blog entry! o.O ah well, 'tis good ;)
Anyways, as the title suggests, I went hiking today (I know, 'tramping' in NZ!) Stuchd an Gah, can't remember the name of the mountain though...somewhere North of Edinburgh, that help?
It was a bit cloudy, but we (me and my parents) got plenty of sun. After a (not too) steep start, it leveled out onto a good ridge, with a slightly steeper section near the top. Had lunch-part-1 on the top, overlooking a steep drop to a small lake (lochan being the Scottish term) and patchy sunshine, which was great!
unfortunately, our route for our two mountains today involved going back to our starting point, which wasn't good for morale. after starting up our second hill, I decided to go back down (wasn't even particularly exciting) and wait in the car ;) spent time reading a book called 'Living with the Himalayan Masters' by Sri Swami Rama, it's really interesting, and quite funny sometimes.
on the way back, the sun and clouds made for a very dramatic sky, I love those awesome sunsets lol
running out of things to say now...
byby for now
