[@allosaurusfragilis7782]

It's really nice seeing a young tourist enjoying our country. We often ( not always) take it for granted here. I suppose people do that everywhere. Other thing that's happened over covid is many more Scots exploring their own country . My daughter is just back from camping in skye. Thanks for making the film.
