New Year in Lochcarron

Sketches from our New Year's trip to Highlands. There was not much of the sun out there - the most spectacular clouds, rain and snow and rain again - so the sketches are rather grey (the main reason was me being too lazy to use anything more than a black pen and a pencil) .  

The best breakfast of the year - scrambled eggs with smoked salmon.

Fish and chips in Applecross on New Year's Eve.(the right-hand side sketch by Konrad)

There was more deer than sheep out there. No hares though.

Here is us stuck in a car during a sudden snowstorm. Very steep and winding single lane road and the best piece of advice I've had in a long time (from a van driver) - whatever happens do not touch the break!

In a pub in Cromarty. We are having a cup of tea and rats get very excited about their favourite cheese.
