News, news, news, my AT happened last night. We didn't reach the summit wind and freezing rain stopped this. Was very 🥶 cold. Started off with seeing what is my log cabin that Gary, dad and Uncle Henry have built. All my family were there including my mum and dad, Gary's mum and dad. The cabin is what I would say perfect. There is a little patch of forest 🌲 and the river is the stretch of water from the main island to mull. So it's more of loch than a river. The name is Loch Don. It's tiny but just enough to do Loch fishing.
Ben more is on the other side of the island, it's 966 metres above sea level. I can honestly say I don't remember much, but I do remember how cold it was. It was only four of us climbing Dylan b'day boy, Ellie, myself and Gary.
Gary was in front and was very regimented (army days) can't see what I am wearing, but everyone else is wrapped up warm. Gary is wearing all black his hiking jacket is black, black hiking boots, black combats everything is black. Ellie is wearing mint green and grey hiking jacket, same coloured woolley hat with a huge bobble, blue jeans and black hiking boots. B'day boy Dylan is wearing red and black hiking jacket with the hood up, black jeans and black hiking boots. I wasn't tired as he said I wouldn't be, but disappointed due to the strong winds and freezing rain which did start to turn to *̣̥☆·· ̥❄-̩̥࿌ིྀ྇˟͙☃️˟͙࿌ིྀ྇-̩̥❄· ͙̥̣☆*̣̥ snow. My log cabin is beautifully designed everything is perfect and how I asked for it in shades of blue and green. Olde worlde but modern as well if that makes sense. Time is different there as you know, you are only permitted a short time to be there as you are considered a visitor, just like when you visit a foreign country. I do not remember the volcano cake or celebrating the aftermath of our hiking trip. But when awake this morning, Gary did tell me the cake was delicious with chocolate ganache inside and yes, he fed me quite a lot of it. And yes indeed he was intimate in our bedroom when everyone had left the cabin. So what I thought was going to be something I didn't remember turned out rather good. I actually could feel his touch and unshaven face while I watched him brush his teeth before bed, I made him laugh by trying to tickle him under the arms instead he spat toothpaste all over the mirror turned around and dribbled toothpaste down his chin and rubbed it on my face. Rinsing his mouth out he finished. Stripped off and jumped into the shower, leaving me to teeth clean in peace lol.. Then I hear the voice of him behind the shower glass "can you fetch me a towel please Deb" my mouth full of toothpaste I said "sure". I threw the towel over the glass door, I watched him wrap it around his waist. Opened the door, nice view. Walked past me, kissed my shoulder and said see you in bed.
I woke this morning feeling bemused that I don't remember all of this AT visit to celebrate my son's 19th birthday. But I did travel.
