one of our best times

Fisherman's friends, Sam and Tess, just before we headed out of Cromarty into the choppy waters and became surrounded by dolphin pods. Amazing, still grinning about it. Dave and Tess were at the front of the inflatable speedboat and got the full force of bumping and riding the big waves, they loved it. All I could hear from Sam was the faint, quiet whisper, "oh wow!", over and over again. I must admit, I got a bit overwhelmed at times seeing how in awe and gloriously happy he was.

The lady at the helm of the Ecoadventures trip has pitched it perfectly, including stopping in the middle of it all to offer us a biscuit and wee tipple of hot chocolate, in the middle of the sea, on a wee rib boat, surrounded by dolphins. It was just great, so it was.
