Not much wind forecast, from a variety of directions, we are feeling a bit tired, and Whitehills seems a nice place so we decided to stay.

| Seal at a beach to the W of Whitehills |

| Marsh Orchid (I think) |
Walked to a nearby village (Boyndie) where the old school has been converted into a cafe, garden centre etc run with the help of a number of disabled people. We had a good lunch (Pam had Cullen Skink soup) and then walked back to the coast a bit further W from Whitehills. We found the sandy bay with seals which the harbourmaster had told us about and then walked back above the beach level. There appears to be a spring line all the way along this piece of coast, so the grass is long and green and there are a lot of interesting plants, such as Marsh Orchid, Cotton Grass, Butterwort, Ragged Robin, Oyster plant, some we could not identify and many I have forgotten.
