Forecast was again for rain all day and the day started with fog but had lifted by mid-morning and was again a beautiful sunny day. It became party cloudy in the afternoon.
I was too knackered to hike so had a rest, did a load of laundry, and
walked into town. I, of course, had to do my duty
as a tourist and visit the Hebridean Toffee Company and buy some
tablet. Yum! I also visited the Heritage Centre which was interesting
and looked like a great place to research ancestors from Barra – MacNeils being
the most common.
Danny caught the local bus to the beginning of the Eoligarry trail, a hike which normally takes about 4 hours.
The hike ended at the airport which is the only airport in the world where the timetable depends on the tide. Danny took these photos with his phone:
In the evening we rode our bikes to the Isle of Barra Beach Hotel for
dinner and to use the internet via our android mobiles. The haddock and chips in the Halaman Bar
was excellent! It was a lovely night
but windy on a bike.
