October 9 -- Kirkwall-Aberdeen-Manchester

The wind and rain yesterday blew in some pretty cold temperatures.  It's like Fall has hit.  We have looked on the map, we are almost the same latitude as Anchorage Alaska....I guess it's ok to be cold.

We dropped off our rental car at the airport--and headed into what we hope is the Kirkwall Airport....the sign said something very different.

This beautiful shot was one of our last scenes from Orcadia.  We will definitely be back.  There is so much more to see, so much more to do.

We flew in a itty bitty tiny plane to Aberdeen and had a short almost 2 hour lay-over.  What turned out to be a number of hours later, we left for Manchester.

Manchester, what a shock.  I don't know exactly what I was expecting but it's like I stepped into New York City...and I loved every second of it!

So amazing....the view from our hotel room, Machester Cathedral:

The National Football Museum?  I think?
