Around the Machars - Port William

 May 10th and 11th 2022

After dinner on May 10th we went to Port William by car and walked about a bit. Lovely evening views of sun water and the Rhins.











On the 11th we went to Port William lifeboat cafe (The View) for lunch - tuna sandwich and salad. Then to the Spar shop to replenish provisions

Around the Machars - Garlieston

 May 9th 2022

Garlieston - After a wet morning we needed some air and movement.

So a morning for a slow breakfast, coffee and ginger loaf, and putting on the washing machine. Harry has suggested we go out for lunch, which seems a good idea. 
By the time we got to Garlieston, the pub was closing (for food anyway), so we wandered along the sea front in the blustery wind, as it began to rain again.  The rain appears to have won the washing line wager of wind v rain, so those clothes will take their chance overnight. 
Garlieston was a place where they tested prototypes for the Mulberry harbour for D-day. 
We returned via Whithorn and lunched at home.
