In the morning we got up really early and tried to rent a car. All 3 companies we went were sold out. It seems the Shetland is a really touristic island:). At the end we called a company from a local tourist guide and we were lucky; the guy came and picked us up in the harbour. At 10 a.m. we were on our way to the southest point of the island where is a natural reserve located for nesting puffins.
After that we drove to spiggie beach, which is on of the sandy beaches in whole Europe having sea around from both sides. Probably at full moon, the whole beach is disappearing below the water.
There are really remote places on the island, it was really nice to be alone and feel myself close to everything not human. I had the same feeling like last year in Argentina and continued the Gerald Durell series..:)
For further pics see the picasa link, I think they speak for themselves...
Tomorrow we heading up to the Faroer Islands, which will take most probably 1,5-2 days. The days will getting longer, water and weather colder:(
