Hi Woofers!
McDaisy & Mac Holly
here!
You can tell it's
Scotland, we were once told that if you don't like the weather where
you are, just hang about for an hour or so and it'll change!
You know, it's right!
Here comes the Sun! |
We got up to a cloudy
start, went out for our morning wee and came back to wake Old Two
Legs up!
After breakfast OTL
gets his coat on and outs us on the lead and opens the caravan door,
it was a gale blowing with the obligatory horizontal rain!
Well, we got as far as
the car and decided we could hold on a bit longer!
Off we went, Holly,
OTL, The Missus and me, driving along the road, heading off for an
adventure up the north of the island.
OTL had a surprise for
us, we stopped at the big beach where we had been chasing rabbits,
well, we had a super run along the beach, in bright sun shine!
Us and TM in the sun shine! |
Even TM got out of the
car for a run on the beach, it was that good!
Next it was off to Port
Askiag and down to Caol Ila, the first distillery of the day.
Well OTL likes Caol Ila
and when he saw the distillery he said he now knows why it's such a
smooth malt whisky!
Caol Ila |
It was beautiful, so to
mark the occasion, he purchased two bottles of whisky!
Next we went off to the
Bunnahabhain Distillery which was down a long single track road and
when we got there, it was closed! Now that upset OTL, he was almost
crying, until TM said he could come back another day, then he cheered
up!
We'll Be Back! |
Now, leading from this
distillery, there was a road, a road that had no tarmac, just tracks
for tyres and it went around in a big circle to join up with a road
again. So, OTL being OTL, decided it would be an adventure to drive
along the track.
Off we went, bumping
along the track, we were thrown from side to side and up and down and
things were going 'Thud' underneath the floor!
Us and The Paps of Jura |
OTL was grinning from
ear to ear, The Missus was not, you could tell she was not enjoying
it in the slightest and she let OTL know!
So after a mile or so
we turned the car around and headed back, splashing through the mud
and ruts of the track and again OTL was grinning all over his face!
The Beginning! |
When we got back onto
tarmac roads again we headed off to Bowmore to do some shopping which
only took five minutes and then back to our beach again!
This time the tide was
almost in and I had a super time chasing the ball into the sea after
OTL had thrown it in.
Because it was so
shallow, I could run for ages before the water got above my tummy and
it took ages for it to get too deep for paddling!
Me, Miles Out to Sea! |
Even Holly got her paws
wet running after the ball, but not too wet, you know what Holly
thinks of water!
Back to the caravan for
chicken dinner followed by a snooze before bed.
By the way, OTL & The Missus had a super meal at the hotel restaurant, TM got a Lobster and OTL said he got a bit of cow!
Tomorrow we are off
otter hunting again!
Bye bye for now!
Luv,
McDaisy & Mac Holly
