Taking a break from wind

We took a speed boat down Loch Ness suited head to toe in waterproof thermals and goggles and we needed it. The driver (if that's what you call him) took us deliberately into the waves at 30 knots to have us take off and slam the waves. Literally a gripping experience. We took a few breaks to wipe our faces dry, enjoy the scenery and take some photos, like this one. It lasted 90 minutes, which proved to be just enough to avoid spinal injury.

We had to take one small detour to save a canoeist from drowning and drop him off on a passing cruise boat. He had fallen in the water and if we hadn't seen him struggling then he would have been doomed. I have no idea what he was doing that far out in the Loch, but it added a bit of drama to an already exciting trip.
