Each of the Small Isles packs a lot into a comparatively small area, and they're all very different from each other<br /><br />:o)Ian Johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14130778756061507141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4597424458147017716.post-67179333955941494772018-07-23T07:47:58.209+01:002018-07-23T07:47:58.209+01:00Hi Ian, I was very sorry to miss this trip.

I did go out to Ailsa Craig with David and Tony in ideal calm conditions in unloaded boats but it was too far. Afterwards my kayak remained on the roof of my car for over a week until I could muster two able souls to lift it off for me! I look forward to the forthcoming episodes even though they will not be in stereovision! :)<br />Douglas Wilcoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12113557051872905710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4597424458147017716.post-6711346924625489152018-07-22T11:36:16.318+01:002018-07-22T11:36:16.318+01:00Every trip to Eigg is an adventure.

A friend was out visiting the Irish offshore islands recently and sea conditions were as flat and calm as he's ever seen, even far from land. Not like that the last time I visited Eigg in very rough conditions.blueskyscotlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09373718369702364265noreply@blogger.com
