Two great weather days, the shift to Scottish weather starts today!
We awoke Wednesday to a damp day, breakfasted amongst the taxidermy and hit the Way. We encountered five Luxembourgers (enough to elect a PM) and raced them for the first few miles, dropping them at a cattle gate. Weather soon turned windy, cool w light rain, making an easier day a bit tougher. During some indecision, the Luxes caught us and we followed them to Crialaich for a break.
After tying their boots together, we slipped out to get ahead of them. We encountered a nice Aussie/NZ couple who told us they wanted to photograph us under by an old bridge.
We then headed to Tyndem, passing the spot "supposedly" containing the sword of Robert the Bruce, some old Scotsman.
As rain approached, Kevin opted for photo time, and again, and again
Finally, we went on without him 
After lunch, we ran into our Danish buddy Mordy. He joined us for the rest of the day, and we swapped world views on everything from Bill Cosby to Israeli self -defense training, his other hobby. We tried to get him to paralyze Tim for 10 minutes, just for fun! But, instead got another couple group pics.
Scottish cattle have interesting coats and moo funny.
After a few pints and dinner we retired for the evening at the venerable Bridge of Orgy Hotel.
