Muck.


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...
