Like last time for the Perth Mega, I did a tour before getting to the Mega location.
This time I went via: Lancaster, Edinburgh, Ullapool, Stornoway on Lewis, Thurso, Dunnet Head, John O' Groats, St Margaret's Hope on Orkney and finally getting to the Ayr area. Afterwards went home via: west coast road down to Mull of Galloway, Kirkcowan to see an old friend staying over night and a couple of Sidetracks off the M6 to break the journey home
The Mega itself was a very wet day which was a real shame after the good weather before. Nothing particularly stood out, it was easy to get to and plenty of parking. Had two chats with a Lackely from HQ and wonder what his job was, as he didn't seem to know anything about Lab caches - where is GS going with them, Wherigos - are GS going to fix, Waymark site - are GS going to make it usable. I know there were some people I missed there
- too busy chatting
The evening after the Mega, it was lovely and I had a good walk round Ayr caching, bumping into many cachers
The camp site I wasn't impressed with, (this was the fourth on my trip,) as it wasn't a fully fledged camp site, so they had added temporary facilities, all, for me, at the far end of the site next to the permanent buildings.
Did I enjoy my tour -
YESsome great scenery
visited some of the islands, which I would like to return to and to include Shetland
I completed my goals I had set myself for the tour
