We are now in Kippford, Dumfries and Galloway, just South of
Dalbeattie and what a lovely spot it is.

Walking in Keswick with Derwentwater behind Sue
We reluctantly left Keswick earlier
today although we may head back there later on in the trip. We'd had a good walk
yesterday into Keswick then back up hill again as the site is over 400ft above the town. Walking through the woods alongside a tinkling stream was lovely
with the birdsong all around. I then walked across the hills to the Castlerigg
Stone Circle which was further than I thought but a lovely walk all the same.
We have managed to get on a site about 15minute walk up a
slight hill from the waterfront in Kippford where there is a pub and a shop
that does not open for a few days yet. Fortunately there is a small shop on the
site that sells, amongst other essentials several types of scone. I can
recommend their treacle scones so far.
Glorious weather continues and we are hoping to explore the
area tomorrow. We are here for three nights before moving on to the coast
further to the North West of where we are now.
