Thank you Mary! Stiff legs today, but I'm so happy to have made it to the top.

Congratulations Grace! Was it rough? How long did it take you? Are you a seasoned climber? I've only climbed the western slopes of Beinn Eighe and I found that extremely rough in going down.(ashamed to say I came a bit unprepared where climbing shoes are concerned...) ah being young and foolish....

Thank you so much Freda! I went up with a guide who was excellent. He had lots of stories to tell about his experiences on the mountain. He had seen a man climbing with a tumble drier on his back a few days before in aid of charity!
Blue has always been my favourite colour. I adore cornflowers.

If the sun is shining, yes, but it's very changeable now - so I must make the most of it.

To answer Cath's question, I love walking in the countryside, but haven't climbed hills since I was in my late 20s (59 now!). I found the ascent fine, but coming down was tough on the old legs. It took me about 4h 15 each way.

Oh, Grace to me Ben Nevis is a real mountain!
Your successful climb is even more impressive knowing you did not do climbing training as preparation.

I think that that shade of blue must be the most beautiful of all! Your photo ie gorgeous..and am thinking back to the last time i did a serious hike..yes, going down is much harder! Good on you, Grace.
