Been Globetrotting - Some Pics
« on: 06 April 2008, 17:00:05 »
Dont know where i am or what day it is...

Started the week in Maidenhead before returning north to go errr further North.

Spend two days travelling to one of the most northern points of Scotland - the very Furthest Tip of the Isle of Lewis...10 hours driving from Glasgow and 10 hours in a ferry to assist in a house removal.

Took some intresting pics - albeit from mobile phone....

Hope you like em  :y

Stornoway Sunrise....after a very very choppy crossing




Some er....hills and water



some "in flight" entertainment  look through the railings and you will see the "operative" in the rope  :-/ this is a training excercise..



Great driving road between Inverness and Ullapool



Think is haggis country / roaming in the gloamin stuff ...



driving up this road ( this is the return) we had to brake suddenly everal times for deer....



...and what was i driving on the ultimate driving road....sadly this...

I have got friends that moved to Lewis a few years ago. I must go and see them...especially as my mate has recently had a serious road accident and had was taken by helicopter to the main land.

Done that ferry a few times - the calmac one...

This ferry was extraordinarily bad - its the "trade/ truck" ferrythat leaves Ullapool at 3am to get there for 9am..Its old and has no stabilisers - there wasa a few bounces that made me hold my breath i can tell you  ;D
