A beautiful warm and sunny day. We have longed for weather like this and cannot believe just how much it lifts our spirits. After another leisurely breakfast we drove to Gruinard Bay, a beautiful sheltered beach with incredibly clear water. There are lots of hidden beaches that are only revealed as the tide goes out and we walked to each of them in turn, collecting heart urchins as we went. The girls had great fun boogie boarding whilst Nick read and I collected shells. We left with the sun low in the sky and the promise of ice creams in Poolewe.
