Tuesday 6th
Grulins and Lochens.

12:56. Hello sheep!

12:56. Yes, we're talking to you, Mrs and Miss sheep!

13:30. On our way to the old ruined houses. It was very misty!

13:30. Getting a bit bogged down by the mist.

13:31. Just like gorillas in the mist... Errr, just sheep instead.

13:34. That must be Muck over there.

13:48. The mist was starting to lift again, and moved off as quickly as it came down.

13:48. The most isolted bothy on the whole island.

13:50. Bits of old ruined buildings.

13:51. I rather liked this little stone bridge.

13:59. Still a bit more mist hanging around over there.

14:06. Dad looking upwards.

14:15. Much easier to see Muck now. Turning into a really nice day!

14:17. Me eating a bit of orange.

14:19. Janie attempting to signal to Karen and Simon, who were out on their little yacht.

14:23. Dad attempting to see them through his binoculars.

14:26. Dad with Muck in the background.

14:28. Some more bits and pieces of ruined houses.

14:34. Me standing in the doorway of an ex bothy.

14:35. Along one of the walls.

14:38. Looks a bit like Dad's trying to rebuild the house here!

14:42. Suddenly it started to rain, so me and Dad set about building a temporary shelter.

14:47. Great! Dad and Janie sheltering in our little bothy renovation job.

14:49. The rain let up soon after and we left our little shelter behind.

14:59. Hmmm... still looks a bit like it might rain again.

15:05. Dad and Janie wandering off back to the Glebe with me going off the other way to take a closer look at the lochens.

15:07. A nice bit of good old fashioned lichen.

15:09. Another view of Muck.

15:16. Quite a way up the side of the hill, another little ruined building. Maybe an old sheep shelter?

15:20. Me with the mountain rising up behind me.

15:28. Luckily this dragonfly was staying put, as it took about 5 or 6 attempts to get this picture right!

15:34. On the top down, and the mist was making it a little difficult to work out where I was going.

15:38. One of the little lochens.

15:43. Down on the side of the lochen. It was really peaceful here.

15:43. Me and the lochen again.

15:53. The stream running away from the lochen went underground here, and you could here running water but couldn't see any.

15:54. Little snake monster I got from a Kinder Egg with Chie resting on a rock.

15:59. Down across the valley that must have been formed by the stream running down from the Lochen.

16:06. Lovely rolling hills.

16:14. Another lochen.

16:15. Same lochen again, with the Sgurr in the background.

16:18. Not sure what I was so jolly about here!

16:21. Little snake monster goes for a swim.

16:22. The Loch Eigg Monster! Just need to rub out my hand!

16:23. Here's Eiggy (?!) again.

16:26. Last lochen picture I think.

16:45. More of Eigg's marvellous landscape.

16:48. On my way back down to Galmisdale now.

16:52. A view of the little extra bit of island on the side of Eigg.

16:58. Fantastic sky!

17:05. Nearly back down to the Glebe now.
