What a beautiful stopover Uisken beach was. Could it be bettered? The morning metallic blue sky hung high above the grey green rocks that sat just off the shore. A group of kayakers glided silently by, the boats of red and orange barely causing a ripple in the water. Idyllic.
Today we would drive to Fidden Farm Campsite just a few miles away. A few miles away doesn't mean a few minutes away here on Mull. We arrived at lunchtime to find a busy site, but Muddy Marge being very capable she negotiated her way into a spot the other vans wouldn't try to access. Our neighbours are a nice couple from Yorkshire. Live in a town house as we do. Are selling up because of a neighbour's noisy dog. It's not just us then.
The views from our pitch are amazing, yes even better than Uisken beach. After us and our washing was clean we took a stroll on the beach and up the nearby lane. Everywhere there are iris's waiting to burst forth. A few yellow blooms are visible, but within the next week or so the area will be a riot of colour and look beautiful no doubt.
It is now a week since we left home, so tonight to mark the occasion we treated ourselves to delicious vegetable pizzas with pesto from the visiting pizza van. Angela is feeling a little better today, or she was until she discovered in the shower she had a tick embedded in her chest. Expertly removed by John with our tick remover hopefully all will be well.
Good weather is forecast again tomorrow when we will drive around the coast towards Tobermory.
