Scotland: Day 15 - Last Day on the Island

After days of winding roads and green horizons, our journey took us from Scorton to Martin Mill, with a stop at the Parlick Pike, where I wanted to spread the wings of my glider, but the wind was too strong, so we had to be satisfied with the hike.

Good morning Bronco.

With Bronco on our morning walk in the suburbs of Scorton.

 

Driving near Bleasdale.

On top of Parlick (also known as Parlick Pike), 432 meters above sea level.

Nada, Bronco and Tuši.

I thought I will do some paragliding here, but the wind was too strong for take off.

Parlick Hill rises gently from the rolling farmland of Lancashire, offering one of the most rewarding climbs in the Forest of Bowland Area.

 

Bronco was looking into the air constantly, waiting for me to show up.

Returning back to the valley.

Sheep are everywhere on Parlick Hill, dotting the slopes like little white clouds. They graze lazily on the open fells, often stopping to stare at you as you pass.

Driving through Luton.

 

Dartford Crossing over the River Thames. A report highlighted that over 1 million foreign drivers failed to pay the Dart Charge in three years. We also didn't pay, so we'll see what will happen.

We settled in a camp Hawthorn Farm and since nobody was at the reception, we just pitched the tent somewhere and then we headed for dinner in The Lantern inn in village Martin.
