Most brochs however crumbled long ago and you can only see the footings.The Solitary Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11284354541952038339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-20511011318894185792009-08-26T01:00:34.267+01:002009-08-26T01:00:34.267+01:00Sounds like a wonderful day.

It is so pretty there.<br /><br />As for the jelly fish....those are some giant jelly fish! I caught myself once in the ocean surrounded by them and was stung several times...very painful, but they certainly are beautiful creatures :)TheChicGeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10781656678543589662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-4768598651714647392009-08-24T13:06:14.342+01:002009-08-24T13:06:14.342+01:00Sounds great.

Perhaps I should spend more time just wandering...Dominic Rivronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618013365521035400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-12666220323001204372009-08-23T02:54:40.938+01:002009-08-23T02:54:40.938+01:00It was by sheer chance that I happened upon your b...It was by sheer chance that I happened upon your blog tonight and saw the pictures of the brochs. I took that walk ten years ago and the mystery and deep calm of these sites has remained with me ever since.

Never heard of brochs, but they are fascinating and wonderfully mysterious. I couldn't quite get an idea of their size, though. <br /><br />I do hope you'll continue sharing your recent walks and adventures. I love going along, if only vicariously.Grizz…………https://www.blogger.com/profile/04828454689578685330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-47465764920424377542009-08-21T11:59:45.969+01:002009-08-21T11:59:45.969+01:00Wow .. golden eagles!!

I wonder if they were simply look out towers - and maybe the look-out lived there, too?jayhttp://www.thedeppeffect.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-46032518242704731902009-08-21T02:34:48.849+01:002009-08-21T02:34:48.849+01:00I'm fascinated by the brochs.I'm fascinated by the brochs.Raph G.
