It was time to pack the cars and leave our cottage, Tigh-na-Mara, which had been our home for a week while on Harris.

We headed down to the port town of Tarbet. More tweed shops and coffee overlooking the harbour).

At midday, we boarded the ferry to Uig on the Isle of Sky. The crossing was calm and we enjoyed coast and island watching as we drew closer to the Isle of Sky. Some were even checking out future trips.

As we returned to the cars we said our goodbyes and reflected briefly on the paddling we had been able to do, in spite of the weather. The drive down through Scotland was pleasant and relatively straightforward and yes we did take advantage of the obligatory stop at Morrisons in Fort Bill.

Many thanks to Chris for the chart below which shows the location of the paddles undertaken and to Debbie for her explanation of “Fuzzy Water”.
