No its not Scotland, but it does look nice! Andrew and Philip will remember it - jelly fish! |
The pontoons at the top of the lock as we wait for it to open. |

The day starts well. Glorious unexpected sunshine and we enter "Neptune's Staircase" two locks behind the Lord of the Glens and follow her in "double lock" mode, for the next 2 hours until we exit the sea loch at Corpach and enter Loch Linnie. Our destination is Port Appin some 20 miles away on the east coast of the loch opposite the island of Lismore. It turns out to be a delightful spot, especially so in the warm sunshine. The mooring is free provided we eat at the restaurant in the Pier House. No real contest really as we both have excellent meals. The evening light is very special and let's me take some interesting photos.
Just to prove we do use the sails occasionally, even if there is little wind. |

Just a dinghy ride away from our restaurant. |

A glorious sunset. |
