Hi Woofers!
McDaisy & Mac Holly
here!
Our first day here on
Isle of Islay. We are at a place called Port Charlotte, well, just
down the road really. It is the local Community Hall and camp site.
We think that they really cater for Motor homes and Tents rather than
caravans 'cos the caravan plot is rather small and our van is rather
big!
But as we said
yesterday, the view is to die for and we have our own sandy beach,
just for us and the sheep!
A view to die for! |
Holly and I went with
Old Two Legs to investigate this morning, we had a ball!
Sharing a Hole with Sis! |
Running
around chasing each other, digging holes, having paddles, woofing at
OTL and rolling in new sniffs!
A Private Sniff to roll in on our Private beach! |
A big Black Backed Gull
landed on the rocks and introduced himself as the Life Guard, he said
he normally works with fish but he would do his best if we got into
problems!
Our Life Guard |
I was in and out of the
water for my swim but I only really had a 'Deep Paddle' 'cos I was not
too sure about the Life Guard!
Who needs a Life Guard, I got OTL! |
Today it looks like
being a bit cloudy and wet, so we are going out in the car for an
investigate while The Missus makes a card or two 'cos she says she is
'Inspired', not sure what by, Wind, rocks, sea or the sun coming up
in the morning across the bay!
We went to the local
RSPB site and had a look around but other than 'Little Brown Jobs'
there was nothing too exciting to see. So, off we went on a tour of
the South West of Islay. OTL passed three distilleries but only saw
two, both shut!
So, he stopped at a
local shop and purchased a bottle of a new whisky he has not tried
before, so we know what he will be doing tonight!
Of course, there will
be shortbread, so we are OK as well!
Just before we got back
to the caravan, OTL stopped the car, jumped out and was looking
through his binoculars and getting all excited 'cos he was watching a
Golden Eagle gliding around on the wind looking for it's dinner!
That's another good
reason for getting the shortbread out!
Good or wot!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
McDaisy & Mac Holly
