We're on our way!

On the drive up yesterday we experienced horrendous rain, hail, brilliant blue skies and snow! 
I was exceptionally proud of myself -having not driven a manual in a number of years, I managed to drive us 3 hours of the way there problem free! We were doing so well for time, aiming to arrive at our bnb for 8pm. When we were just 30 minutes away the only road to take us where we need to go to was closed...with no diversions!  A 2.5 hour detour later, after following rabbits and sheep along the road with a sheer cliff edge on the left, we finally made it to Selkirk, where we'd decided to break the journey. 

If you need a bnb on the Scottish Boarders, I'd thoroughly recommend where we stayed! (Broadmeadows Farmhouse) - they'd made us dinner for when we'd finally arrived and they only rent out the two (massive) rooms...so you have free reign of the entire place. They also have a piano, and got pretty excited when Leo played it.
