Day three.

On thursday we packed up everything and me and big al (the person who was camping with us) went to a place where we could fish. I caught my first fish (which i fed to our cats) which was a small brown trout ! I felt excited when i hooked it! Here is a picture of the fish that i caught.



I really enjoyed our camping holiday!!!!

Day two

On Wednesday we climbed the Merrick which is the highest hill in the south of Scotland!
Here is a picture of us on the foothills.



After a while of climbing we got to an old, abandoned cottage where we stopped for a drink and a munchie. Here is a picture of the abandoned cottage



After the cottage the uphill really took off and it took a while to the top of Benyellary (The hill before the Merrick) . Here is a picture of the sheer cliff of
Benyellary



When we finally reached the top of the Merrick (which is 843 meters above sea level)
my legs were aching like crazy and I felt very proud of myself as I managed to climb the Merrick without complaining how sore my legs were!
Here is a picture of us at the top!

Day one

On Tuesday we arrived at the camp site and found a good place to pitch our tents.
Here is a picture of where we pitched.



There was a cheeky robin who lived near where we pitched.
Here is a picture of him.



We went for a walk to Bruce's stone which is near where the battle of Glentrool happened. In it two hundred Scots fought two thousand English and won!
Here is a picture of Bruce's stone.




After that we went for a walk to Loch Trool.
Here is a picture of a waterfall we saw on the way there.

A few days ago i got Mario kart wii.I am very lucky because i got it a day before it was due out in the UK!!!!!! My favorite character is Koopa the turtle and my favorite track is Coconut Mall!!!! My favorite feature is the online time trials in which you compete against other peoples best times on tracks.
