The next day in Lybster, Mano and Louise took us to Wick after breakfast. We saw the Whaligoe steps (317 steps down the cliff to the sea). We walked around in a "European market" in Wick before lunch. I had a beef-n-ale pie with onion rings! We headed back home, passed by the airport where Mano works and a quick stop at the Tesco (supermarket) to get dinner supplies. When we got back, Duncan took me out with a fly rod, we went wading up the river and I caught 3 wild brown trout! They are native to Scotland so it was a lot of fun! The octopus stew was made for everyone except me...I tried it, it was...different, but they cooked haggis for me along with the swede and potatoes. Then, Mano took us and Eric out in the dinghy to see a castle on the coast and a bunch of caves, we saw a seal and a puffin! It was really awesome, but freezing! Me and Eric stayed up late and watched the night sky, you can see the Milky Way here it is so dark! We saw 4 satellites and 3 Perseid meteors! We are staying another night here in Lybster...
