Yes Kim, that is the restaurant we went to and loved the fish.

Today we are in Kirkwall we have been here many times and it is terrible weather. Rainy, windy just not pleasant. Buses are using lights I guess visibility is an issue. We decided to stay on the warm ship.

Tomorrow is Stornaway and this is where my father’s family lived in the 1800’s. My sister June found the tombstone of a McIver who was a doctor and also our great great grandfather. She also found the house where he lived. It is now a small hotel. I have all the details and was hoping for a nice day to see Stornaway and follow in her footsteps. When I was 18 I went on a 9 month business trip with my parents and we came to Stornaway to trace my father's ancestry and learn about the McIver clan. This trip was the catalyst for my desire to travel.

Unfortunately the weather is not looking good for walking in an old cemetery. Hopefully it is better than it is today.
