Staffa. Second try.

Seals sunbathing

Hopefully I can get you some pictures from inside the cave as well..on my third return












Pal and Paul touring our trip. Pal is one of the children who's involved in the business and living on the island. The sisters are working in the shops, run B&B's and a pub, cafe, restaurant. Three sisters and a brother..all working and living side by side under their parents eyes.

Saturdays are my days off.. There's a wedding on the island..so..of course I HAD to go back down to the pub after work. Had two drambuies with crabbies yesterday. And today is my day OFF. if you now what i mean ;) I really can't drink decent amounts anymore. It's almost embarrassing.
So..this morning..two options - to clean the house or hop on a boat to Staffa.
My first attempt to go to Staffa remained a nice view on the horizon because of the stormy sea ..we could not land.
This time - we landed!
and ..I forgot to charge my camera and to take my watch/mobile with me. But I still managed to get some pictures and get back on the boat just on time. If you do have a chance, go and see Staffa. It's quite an extraordinary island..with it's mystical caves, Puffins and of course the island itself, formed of those stone columns.
Working on Iona has some nice advantages..such as free boat trips..because most of the island businesses are owned by one family, whom I work for, including the boat tours. Happy days!
