Whisky and walking. Slainte.



Islay. An island of 3000 people and 7 whisky distilleries. Ardbeg, Lagavulin, Laphroaig, Bowmore, Bruichladdich, Bunnahabhain, and Caol Ila. A 2.5 hour drive plus a 2 hour ferry from Glasgow. Worth a visit.

Bob was in England for a meeting, so decided to join me for a spell and offer some assistance with the birthday splurge. He met me in Glasgow and coordinated the visit to Islay.





Port Ellen, Islay


The 8th century Kildalton Cross, similar to those found on Iona, from the time of the early Christian movement from Ireland.
