We were up and breakfasted by 0900 and then decided to go to Dunrobin Castle as it was not too far away up the coast and had a falconry display.
When we arrived we parked right by the door (thanks to the blue badge) only to find out that the falconry display was about 1/2 a mile away walk down a load of steps but woohoo as 2 of our party were disabled we could drive there. So off we set and arrived with 5 minutes to spare.
It was a lovely display with the birds flying among the spectators and were so close you had to duck at times as you felt they would hit you.
Below is Andy Hughes the falconer with part of Dunrobin Castle in the background.

After this we went and had a look around the castle.
