12:11. Today we were off to Muck, having had to postpone the Wednesday trip due to bad weather. |
12:13. Vera awaits the arrival of the boat. |
||
|
12:20. Here it comes! |
12:23. This is the handle of the crane in the jetty. Not sure this worked quite as well as I'd hoped... |
||
|
12:45. Alex and Luke aboard the Shearwater again. |
12:45. Me and Chie were on the back seat. |
||
|
12:48. There's Eigg then. |
12:53. Muck in the distance. |
||
|
13:05. Into Muck's harbour now. Here's the new jetty being built. |
13:06. Water looks very inviting today! |
||
|
13:07. You can just about make out one of the crew bailing water out of this rowing boat here... Oh dear! |
13:16. Of course some people got to go to shore by more modern means... |
||
|
13:19. Can just about see Martin, Lucy and Alex in the rowing boat here. |
13:26. I think I must have been in the rowing boat at this stage, |
||
|
13:28. On terra firma now. The good ship Shearwater. Probably the most photographed boat in Scotland! |
13:47. Janie, Dad and Vera in Muck's marvellous tearooms. |
||
|
13:59. After a quick lunch, me and Chie wandered over to the other side of the island. |
14:03. Chie on a rope swing. I of course had to have a go afterwards. |
||
|
14:21. The other side of theisland. I was trying to get a picture of the seal colony, but as always, my zoom is useless. |
14:28. A crab's claw. |
||
|
14:47. Another attempt at getting the seals. Well, they are there, honest! |
14:50. Chie amongst the rocks. |
||
|
14:50. Lucy and Martin with slightly better photographic equipment! |
15:01. On the way back to the boat - I think we were a bit late. Oops. |
||
|
15:49. Heading back to Eigg now. |
16:08. One of several attempts to take a picture of the dolphins we saw on the way back. You can just about see a fin here, about half way up the picture, and slightly right of the centre. |
||
|
16:11. Again, not very successful! |
16:18. The cathedral cave, as seen from the sea. |
||
|
16:23. Back to the harbour on Eigg once more... |
