Visitors arrived today and so this afternoon we went in search of some seals – which is on their wish list.  Of course, not one to be seen.

So we went to the beach to look for nice rocks because that is what you take home with you from Shetland. That, and knitwear.

As we drove around on our endless search for seals (we did see some swimming in the distance and on the way from the airport, basking on the rocks), the weather turned from a nice day to a dreich day so we gave up and drove home.

The Minions came over for a chat.  They do love a visitor.

And the sheep had come home from their field so it was nice to introduce them too.

We are going to batten down the hatches now to get ready for the mother of all storms.
