Busy day

On Wednesday, we split up into two groups of four.  One group took the boat through the Neptune Staircase flight of locks.  It took us the whole day due to bridges being broken.  While we were waiting for repairs to be done we saw the Harry Potter Train.

The other group took the day to climb to the top of Ben Nevis.  A great achievement for all!!

Heading to Corpach

Left Oban at tea time heading back towards Corpach.

Better weather today, skipper Hamish sailing us back towards the canal

In Oban Fishing

Spent an enjoyable morning trying to catch some fish.  KW caught three mackerel, well done!!!!

Oban

They set off early yesterday (Monday) morning heading for Oban.  KW was seasick again but found his sea legs by the time they got there!!  Spending today fishing in the morning and going into Oban for the afternoon.

Mallaig

Arrived at a rainy Mallaig. Spent some time on Windshift playing Monopoly and then headed to the swimming pool in the afternoon. Having an early night as will have to be up early on Monday morning for a day at sea.

At least it stopped raining for a while to get our photo taken

Heading for Mallaig

Its now Saturday and they are heading for Mallaig.  Weather has changed and they now have quite a lot of rain.  They should reach Mallaig around tea time.  Spirits are still high even though been more seasickness.

Smiles and silly faces keeping their spirits up

Things are not quite so good here at this moment

Think he should go and have a lie down

Hope he feels so much better when he wakens up

Isle of Rum

We safely reached the Isle of Rum on Friday.  Weather has still been very nice but KW had a bit of seasickness on the way. We had a look around Kinloch Castle and were booked in for a lovely dinner and to stay the night.  Heading to Mallaig on Saturday.

This photo must have been taken before the seasickness!!

Today we had really nice weather and after visiting Lunga, Staffa and Fingals Cave we eventually made it back to Tobermory at tea time.  Spent the evening fishing and JS caught the first fish!!!!!!  Going to have an early night as heading for Rum tomorrow.
