When the wee bonny boat (please note: this is not a
typo, but Scottish for small but perfectly formed vessel) sped across the sea to
Skye, this is what the the crew might have seen. Except if it was a
trailer-sailer, crossing by the Skye Bridge. Anyway, we have now left Skye and
made our way to Oban, ready for the next phase of our voyage. We paused
overnight in an anchorage in Kilchoan Bay, and then today sailed the length of
the Sound of Mull to arrive here in the lee of Kerrera Island.
Coming south from Skye we passed between the
islands of Canna and Rum, where we saw another Minke whale gliding along. These
are quite big animals, yet very graceful in thier natural
environment.
The question now is - where
next???
