09 The picture above shows the gently undulating plateau which runs down the centre of Rhins of Galloway and you can see the road making it's way north towards Stranraer. The picture below shows the same road heading south to the Mull and that is how the route now takes us - all the way back to the lighthouse. It was 12.49 (according to my camera) when this picture was taken and we were concerned that we might not be able to get some lunch at the tearoom by the lighthouse if we did not make a beeline for it. We could have just crossed onto another off-road track when we came up from the Kirk Burn onto the road, and even when we were nearer the lighthouse we could have made our way along the path on the north coast of the Mull, but the novelty of being able to have a Guinness, some soup and some chips in the middle of our day's walk was just too much for us - we just followed the tarred road back past where the car was parked and I unloaded the stones from my pack in the passing.
