We had to start heading south this morning, but before we did so, we the Swan Whisperer went for a walk around the area. It was low tide, so not very beautiful, but I still took a couple of photos!
It was about 11:00 when we set off, as we had to use the services before we could go anywhere. But once the grey was empty, the water full, and the loo empty, we set off.
Our first port of call was Tesco's in Dumfries, which we first went to many years ago when we were at a skating competition there and then took a couple of days' break afterwards. I hope I won't need to shop again until we get home, although we might have to get milk. Once I had shopped, we had lunch, and then set off on the long, dreary route down the A75 and M6. I slept a lot of the way - I haven't been knitting lately because of my eyesight, although I probably could again now, and I can't read in a moving car, so there's nothing much else to do.
We arrived here at this very nice Certificated Location (tiny campsite on someone's farm) at about 5:00. The owner was very friendly and welcoming, and showed us where things were, and made change for the EHU, which only takes coins. The SW went out for a walk to discover the Lancaster canal and the nearby railway line - I hope to do so in the morning, but we have another long drive, and are meeting family, so mustn't be too long. Also, we have to be away by 11:00.
