Well, we're still not home, so maybe I can catch up a little while we're still relaxing on vacation. On June 25th our friends the Bowens came up from London to visit. They arrived on the most glorious day we had seen in Shetland. We took them to St. Ninian's and the kids had a great time on the beach and we all praised God for the wonder of the sun!
Then we introduced them to some locals! The puffins! It was like the sunshine had made them as excited to get out as we were. The last time we had visited their nesting ground at Sumburgh Head we saw just one lonely puffin. This time they were all over the cliffs! Aren't they cute?
And the next day, the weather got back to usual. We still managed to get up to Echaness to see the rocky coastline, but we only got a few breaks in the rain to hop out of the cars, so no hiking around on the coastline. It was a fun time though and then we all went down to Lerwick. Andy was amazing and took the four kids to play at the museum while the rest of us did a little shopping downtown.
