All is well except for a wee visit by Murphy and his law.
On my first night out sitting in the tent I fired up the iPad mini and wireless battery keyboard to get started and discovered the keyboard had broken overnight. I’d used it at the Morar Hotel the night day before.
I tried changing batteries, putting the batteries in the wrong way, banging it, and tonight, four days later, trying just-bought batteries. Nothing worked. I’m kissing it goodbye and binning it tomorrow.
Figuring it was truly broken, yesterday I deviated somewhat from my route to see if there was a cell signal higher up the on the hills. (I’d been walking along a loch.) There was.
So, for 90 minutes I did research and calling and managed to place an order for a new keyboard from the Apple store in Glasgow. It will be delivered at an (indoor) stopping spot in three days’ time.
This is where I placed my order.
All of this is to say that the posts will be coming slowly, and they will be heavy on pictures and light on narrative arc for the next few.
I hope you’re still around when verbosity is born anew.
Glad to hear that only hardware is broken and you are intact. What a gorgeous spot for shopping!
