My blogs about Aberdeenshire are here. You might find some interesting stuff among this lot, and certainly about what might be do-able in a day.

You asked ‘Where to stay?’ We stayed at the Rothie Inn, a pub in Rothiemay I think it was. Very central to many sites.
You asked ‘is there anything I REALLY SHOULDN'T MISS?’ Sunhoney, Sunhoney, Sunhoney!!!!
You asked ‘The best site to spend the solstice?” Easter Arquoithies (can’t spell it!) or Sunhoney! More advice coming from Moth shortly…
Oooh you're going to have SUCH a fab time. Happy planning!

Thank for that - I did try trawling through the blogs but it takes days to find stuff sometimes! I shall have a good read through and see qhat you receommend. I'm guessing Sunhoney will be on the itinerary - if just because it has such a fabulous name! I actually know the people whose land Easter Arquoithies (can't spell it either!) is on, so that's a must too.
Haven't really been around TMA for a while (house-moving and no pooter) - have I missed anything????
