One of the downsides of walking in this beautiful country – ticks.

Unfortunately Alfie got one, you can see the sac of blood. Not nice, and you need to be careful how you remove them.

iona, lovely but small. Walked the length of it and around a lot of the coast. Walking however lovely would be limited.

Walking to the trig point. Not a particular difficult challenge.

Iona is a beautiful island. Accessible from Mull by ferry (£4.60 return cheaper than a bus in England).

The abbey, museum and the convent great to visit.

Ferry off to Iona.

An unusual site. Sally at a convent ?

The grave of John Smith a leading light of the labour movement. Blair wouldn’t have been PM without the untimely dead of John Smith.

A lovely if a little quirky island.

So many stunning sunsets. This one from the campsite… just great.

Sadly not open, but what a place to sell ice creams.

Most of the roads were single track with passing places. So why use a massive coach. I wouldn’t like to drive it.

wildlife was stunning. Here’s a nest just on the roadside near the campsite.

As we potter around Mull we see signs to ‘the old byre heritage centre’. A bit out of the way and not really promoted. But the models and the stuffed animals (died naturally) were excellent.

impressed how much effort has gone into these models

Saw this notice in a window in Tobermory.

Went to Tobermory, the only town/big village on Mull.

Classic pic of the coloured houses.

Nice place, although we preferred the south, much more rural.

One of our first trips on Mull. Duart castle.

Lots of history. Well worth a visit.

Sally enjoying herself. Maybe it was the excellent food.

Now on Mull. One interesting thing is toilets in remote rural locations.

This one on mull, no water, no electricity, but does the job.

Another one on Uist. Again a good facility.  A small car park nearby with several campers parking up overnight.

Not seen any in UK…
