Staying at Kildonan a second night, I visited the hotel adjoining the campsite which was rather depressing – I decided the owners were hanging around the wrong side of the bar and a couple of youngsters were rushing round serving them first and the not many customers second. I ordered mussels which were a starter and with the amount on the plate the description almost should have been in the singular.
The harbour at Blackwaterfoot
Today I heard a cuckoo. I saw gannets flying and diving and a flock of greenfinch. Also cormorants (or shags?). And the smell of gorse.
This is a Tertiary Drumadoon sill (geology).
The lump at the end of Mull of Kintyre is called The Bastard
The King’s Caves (middle distance) – a raised beach (geology) and supposedly where Robert the Bruce studied the spider. I’m not sure that any self respecting spiders still lodge there
and it is Spring….
Another milestone
My view tonight
