Adventure in the Highlands

Sleepy eyes. Tasty breakfast. A long bus ride. Stepping off of the bus, we broke out into an adventure in the Highlands. As we brace ourselves for the cool northern breeze we experience the splendour of God's mountains, dusted in snow. A lone sheep wanders before our eyes, as the rest wander in the distance. The cloudy sky attempts to conceal the sun. With a dull thud our boots hit the mud, we explore the land of the Highlands. The cars buzz seemingly close, yet we are lost in the conscious beauty of our Master. We tire quickly, but we continue our trudging. We descend the sloping hillside, and rise again to meet the peak of a new hill. At the end of it all, we advance past a pond with a white farmhouse planted by. We pace our steps till we're halfway across the bridge, and each finds their place for a group photograph. And for a moment, we are lost in the Highlands. This is an adventure that we will never forget.

  1. This blog is amazing. Reading it brings back memories of how truly beautiful the mountains were. It was amazing how for a few hours, we lost ourselves in God's magnificent beauty.
