Day 14, Kirriemuir to Brechin.
A bright and beautiful day with the wind behind me and a few showers that stayed in the hills.

| Brechin in the morning |
It was an easy walk today just along the quiet minor road to Brechin. It was a great walk though, the warmest one of the challenge.

| Colour contrasts |
The bright colour of the rape fields contrasted well with the distant showery hills and grass. I saw my first Orange Tip butterfly of the season as well.

| Quiet leafy lane |
 |
| Old bridge over the River South Esk |
 |
| Halfway |
I arrived in Brechin just in time to get to a café before it closed before walking down to the campsite where there were two other TGOers already in residence.
 |
| The tree doesn't think it's spring yet |
I passed a house where I was invited in for a cup of tea when I passed several years ago. At that time it was inhabited by an old man and many cats, there was nobody at home today.
 |
| No sign of any potatoes coming through yet |
Spring is very late here and the crops are definitely a week or so behind.

We all retired early, after a swift half at the pub around the corner, to lie back and listen to the birdsong. Ready for the last bit to the coast tomorrow.
