CHRIS MATTHEWS OUR GUEST GUIDE THAT TOLD US EVERYTHING ABOUT THE ORKNEY ISLANDS...EVERYTHING!
We checked into our Hotel in Kirkwall. Our group was split between two close Hotels. I checked in and joined Chris on a guided tour of Kirkwall on our way to St Magnus Cathedral where a Choral Concert was being held that night.

Then there was much anticipated beautiful dinner at the North Shore Restaurant before retiring to my room after a long day.
This was a
Crab and Seafood Tart...like a Quiche that was part of one of the three best meals I enjoyed this trip. The Third meal would be Fish Pie tomorrow at this same restaurant.
