5th July, 2009.

Collected Rachael and Katherine from Kirkhill, Inverness by 1000 hours and we commenced our journey back to Islay via the Great Glen route. Again a sunny and hot day with little respite due to the distance needing to be travelled. As can be imagined cars, caravans and motorbikes were also enjoying the delights of the Highlands and the whole journey was somewhat of a "convoy" operation. A stop in Oban for the habitual supermarket top-up provided variety followed by a busy, full but non eventful ferry journey arriving on time shortly after 2000 hours in Port Ellen, thereby allowing us to get back around 2115hours. A full day!!
