Isle of Mull 10/1-3/2006

We left Stirling on a morning train, passing through Glasgow on our way to Oban. Oban is a pretty port on the west coast of Scotland, and the gateway to Mull and other of the inner Hebrides. We did not get to stay and visit it, only passed through quickly. We caught a ferry to Mull, arriving towards evening. Mull is a very picturesque island, a great getaway for folks in the UK, and very popular. The time we visited Scotland, however, was ideal for visitors, as the locals were working or in school.

We found lodging at the Pennygate Lodge, a B&B, and found it most restful.






This is Duart Castle on Mull, we passed it several times, but had no chance to visit it.
