After Babba went home we stayed in Shetland with Auntie Lyn and Uncle Lyndon. We had lots of fun.
One day we went to Waas. We had the best cake we have ever tasted (honest) in the Baker's Rest Tearoom, which we would highly recommend. Then we had lots of fun in the Waas Play park.
The sun shines all the time in Shetland - well, on the Wast side anyway.
We had a fantastic afternoon in Eshaness, despite the drizzle. We didn't even have time to sample all of Eshaness' delights. We saw Johnnie Notions Bod, the inventor of his own small pox innoculation. (I'm not aware that he was in on any government conspiracy - just saw a clinical need and addressed it. Fantastic!)
We visited the Tangwick Haa Museum. There was lots of interesting things to look. We especially liked the old ben room and the wedding dress. As usual we spent lots of time choosing souvenirs in the shop.
After meandering through the museum we went to the Eshaness graveyard - a most interesting place. We saw Johnnie Notions grave and read the unfortunate account of the death of a man after mistakenly being given Nitre by the Sullom apothecary, when he had asked for Epsom salts. He died within hours of taking it.
We than had a delicious tea at the Breiwick cafe.
What a place - how come nobody wants to live there?
