On Mull
Well, we're coming to the end of the first week of our holiday, and what a great week it's been! We've seen:
- castles
- otters
- eagles (golden and white-tailed - and, in an aviary, bald)
- buzzards
- lots of small birds, like wheatears, stonechats and whinchats
- seals
- porpoises
- lots and lots and LOTS of puffins
- basalt columns (in Fingal's cave)
- Tornadoes
- and an aircraft carrier!
The weather has varied from great to glorious - food pretty good - drink likewise. I had oysters and guinness for lunch yesterday - mmm!
After a week in Tobermory*, we're now about to leave Mull for three days on Iona, then head back to the mainland for three more days in Oban.
*Tobermory features multifarious Balamory souvenirs, and the odd Saki** book. However, there are no wombles at all. *sulks*
**He wrote a story called Tobermory, about a talking cat. It's good.
