Poor Weather

Lismore Lighthouse

Lismore Lighthouse

Things have been quiet for the last few days. The predominant feature has been the poor weather – mist, drizzle, rain and contrary winds with a few rare blinks of sunshine. We have come back in from the Outer Isles in four stages : Scalpay – Portree – Isle Ornsay – Loch Drumbuie – Oban. After the peace and quiet of Lewis and Harris it came as a jolt to find how busy at this time are the more easily reached cruising grounds. Loch Drumbuie (off Loch Sunart) was home to twenty three yachts last night, and Tobermory sported a sea of masts as we passed this morning. Oban is busy too, and will be even more so next week with West Highland Week in full swing. We are looking forward to Innes and Janice joining us for the weekend, and hope that the run of poor weather will have ended by then.
