We drove yesterday to the port town of Oban, along highways and windy narrow roads. KLS was a bit hair-raised, but with many stops we made it in time for lunch.
Oban is a popular tourist destination, and departure port for the many Hebrides islands. It was sunny and warm yesterday and the visitors were out in droves.
In addition to the bevy of souvenir shops down near the water, we also climbed to the overlook above the town to visit McCaigs Tower, a fanciful construction financed about 100 years ago by a wealthy man to honour his family.
Our B&B is out in the country on a quiet single-lane road, surrounded by sheep and cows. It’s incredible quiet and peaceful here.
But I’m not sure the sheep enjoy the visitors 🙂
Big trip coming up today: on many boats and coaches. We’re going island-hopping…
