Even while I was packing the car my knee was twinging, so I set off with very mixed feelings as I parked up the car in Morvich A big part of me wanted to drive off straight away, but the day was shaping up to be another beauty so it seemed like a real shame not to make use of it.
I set off on the bike ride to the start of the walk, still trying to convince myself. The ride itself was less even than first expected, it probably took about 40 minutes to reach the University hut. I locked up the bike while being swarmed by midges, even the midge repellent didn't put them off!
I set off on the walk, got about 15 paces and my knee started playing up - honestly! I turned straight round, unlocked the bike and rode back.....
Luckily it was a lovely ride, and in no way a waste of time. I was gutted to be setting off so early, but I knew that it was the only option.
I stopped off at the Welly Shop to peruse the whisky and bought another bottle and then drove home.
The week had been enjoyable, but nowhere near as productive as early promises indicated it would be. I feel like I added more to my 'to do' list that I actually ticked off. I didn't even take a look round El Donan castle!
