Catching Up

A few pics of our holiday in Mull and Iona in September - a chance to show Lucy the isle from where she gets her middle name, and for Paul and I to revisit it for the first time since we meet there in 2005 - seemed a long time ago.

On the ferry

A pod of dolphins was there to meet us when we arrived from Fionnphort and put on quite a show - don't think we had ever seen them in the wild and it was magical, but we were too busy enjoying the sight to get many good pictures.

Checking out the nunnery in the rain

We had to walk all over the island to work up an appetite for a very fine dinner at the St Columba's Hotel (Lucy did a minimum of walking, letting Daddy take the strain, but somehow still had a healthy appetite)

The Abbey - our accommodation last time we were here.

The boat back to Mull in slightly better weather

Playing on Calgary beach

Picnic weather in Tobermory

And a beautiful walk to Aros Park, with stunning, sunny views back over the Bay.

And the Egon Ronay starred fish and chips in the evening sunshine to finish a pretty perfect day.


Hope we come back soon.
