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!
