A wet day and we decided to don the waterproofs and go for a little walk.

This is Glengorm Castle, our cottage was on its estate.

A Victorian bathing pool - we didn't need to go in to get wet!!!

Relaxing again back at the cottage in the dry

On the Mull Railway - Muffin really hated it and would have jumped out if Richard hadn't had a good hold on him! (w00t)

Of course, Jonah loved it! :lol:

The railway took us to Torosay castle

It had really nice gardens

Lookng across to Duart castle.....

...which is where we went next

It was quite sunny the next day and we decided to take a walk to a lighthouse near Tobermory. It might have been sunny overhed but the ground was really, really muddy! (w00t) Jonah up to his ankles

At one point we had to cross over a really muddy part on these crates that someone had put down

Hello! :wub:

Nearly there - time for a short rest

More to come ...

It looks gorgeous regardless of the weather! I love the photos on the train, one saying 'Dad! Let me off!!!' and the other going 'This is COOL!' LOL

The lighthouse

Back in Tobermory

The take away van just in front of the blue car is a fish and chip van and has a Les Routiers recommendation. (w00t) Fish and chips were very nice!

Forgot to post this photo from our very first day in Tobermory when this otter just appeared! Just my luck to only have the compact on me because it was a bit wet so the photo's not particularly good

Looking across the harbour

In a nearby park

Off to Salen the next day. Was quite a pleasant day except that we got caught in a massive hail shower and were soaked through! Spotted a load of posts in the water with cormorants on top.

Still more... :b

Lovely record of your holiday Gillian, I just love the one of Jonah relaxing :clown:

 

[gilliwigs]

Saw another otter and this time I did have the right camera but it was a little bit too far away

Then we found a really nice forest walk- Muffin and Jonah had a pleasant chat along the way 8)

The path led to an old graveyard and it was a fantastic place for the dogs to run around in :wacko:

Muffin stops for a rest :wub:

And has to have a lie down :-

Just one more lot to come....

Those are fantastic photos and brought back lots of memories. Did you have any problem with the wee scot midgey?

 

[owengirl]

What a nice set of photos. I would love to take our whippets on holiday with us but for now just the children are plenty to contend with.

Connie sends Jonah a big kiss and when the children get up I will show them the photos of Tobermory and see if they recognise it - I expect my 5 year old will!

My husband was amused by that comment all evening - it sums them up so well! :lol:

We weren't really bothered by them until the last day - it was quite windy most of the time and rather wet. But we went over to Iona again on the last morning and they were dreadful :luck: :angry: We ended up coming back at lunchtime. They managed to find the one spot - the back of my neck - where I'd forgotten to put Jungle Juice on. Nasty little things!
