The Journey Home Monday 20.7.10



We ate our continental brekky at the COUNTY HOTEL, The staff here are a treat, as is the food. It's public areas are very smart, all of which has made it a popular eatery. Shame the bedrooms are rather lacklustre

Our ferry was leaving at
 STUPIDY TIME IN THE MORNING. 


First STORNOWAY and then THE EYE PENINSULAR slid away under a dawn sky, as did sightings of Porpoises and Dolphins.


The land shrank as the blue took over. An hour of sea and sky followed. Lots of sea and sky. 


And then, as a few low islands came into view, Porpoises and Dolphins began to pop up again. They were playing around THE SUMMER ISLES


and all the way along the glorious LOCH BROOM.


What a perfect piece of water, shiny,  smooth,


oleaginous, smoothing our way


into the tiny, MAINLAND port of ULLAPOOL and the long, wet road home.
