<\/a>\nWe saw the clouds sweeping across the Flow. As a result of the wind direction my right leg was getting wetter than my left.
\nBob had mentioned the Forsinard station cafe and as we were already quite wet it seemed a good place to dry off. There was a sheep guarding the door but we managed to get inside. Its simple menu required extensive sampling and I’m glad to report that soup, scones and chocolate cake were all excellent. The sheep kept guard while we ate, even dosing off on the porch. We dried out as the thunder rumbled on around us.<\/p>\n

One of my main reasons for walking this way, apart from avoiding the A9, was to cross the Flow Country, a large area of blanket bog. It is the largest in Europe and ecologically an important resource.

\nDuring a brief break in the weather we walked down to the station where the RSPB have an exhibition about the Flow Country. Two trains came through.
\nThe rain and thunder started again. We sat in the car until it cleared up and then I legged it down the road for a further mile until the rain started again. It looks like the next few days may follow this pattern.<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nWe drove through to the North Coast to a B&B near Melvich. Unfortunately the low cloud obscured the views of the coast but it was out there somewhere.<\/p>\n
\nThe Laws of Physics make for an amazing universe. We are in awe of phenomena like thunder. Rain makes the Flow Country what it is. Blanket bog is important. The connections between all of these physical aspects of the world echo the complexity of the Holy Creator.<\/p>\n
