Hiking the Poconos: A Guide to the Area's Best Hiking Adventures | John L. Young

Littens! My husband and I are taking a kind of impromptu trip to the Poconos next week and I'd love any recommendations from those who have visited! What can't we miss, and most importantly....what bookstores should we look out for? #TravelTips #TravelisJustReadingInAnotherPlace

Thin Air: A Shetland Mystery | Ann Cleeves

Once again story kept me guessing to the end. Second: apparently all the houses in Shetland have names. I must name mine. Third: I need to go farther north than John O Groats. According to the Googles; it's doesn't appear that you can get to Shetland from there.
Whose been? 🚢🛫🤷

SusanInTiburon Haven‘t been up that far. We were in Dornoch last summer and all the houses had names. I‘d go again in a heartbeat. 7y

Andrew65 We go to John O‘ Groats area every year, we have a few camp sites we visit in the motorhome that you can pitch overlooking the sea and the Orkney Islands. My very favourite place. There is a foot passenger ferry from John O‘Groats to the Orkneys and they do a day trip which includes coach travel around the Orkneys visiting the Italian Chapel and The Churchill Barrier. Good on a smooth day but can get rough on a bad day. (edited) 7y

Andrew65 I don‘t think you can get a ferry from the very north of Scotland to the Shetlands but you can get Ferries to the Orkneys and I think you can then get a different Ferry to the Shetlands from there. There are car ferries to the Orkneys at Gills Bay a few miles west of John o‘groats and from Scrabster near Thurso which is about 22 miles west of John O‘Groats. I believe the only ferry to Shetland from mainland is from Aberdeen. 7y

Crinoline_Laphroaig @Andrew65 Thank you! 7y
