I had a walk on the Bunnahabhain road early this morning to practice my "wildlife photographing skills" when somebody stopped their car and lowered the window..... It was Gordon Yates and his wife, a lovely surprise. Later in the morning we left for Port Ellen and had a lovely time at the beach and around the village. The Port Ellen Hotel is progressing really well. Projected opening time is June, as in next month!! Port Ellen is quiet without the ferries coming in but lovely as ever. The afternoon was spent around the cottage and I went for a wee walk to my "favourite tree" near Ardnahoe. We had some more clouds in the afternoon but the weather is still gorgeous. If all goes well we will be heading for Jura tomorrow. Have a nice evening!
