Isle of Islay Scotland http://isleofislay.posterous.com Information, blogs and images from the Scottish Isle of Islay posterous.com Mon, 09 May 2011 12:43:00 -0700 A Changeable Day on Islay http://isleofislay.posterous.com/a-changeable-day-on-islay http://isleofislay.posterous.com/a-changeable-day-on-islay

It was a special day today, we started off with friendly although very windy weather and it improved quite a bit later in the day so we enjoyed lots of sunshine and blue skies. Late in the afternoon (at five) a big shower arrived at Loch Indaal as you can see from the images below. We started off at Bowmore for some shopping, went to Kilchiaran Bay and Chapel for some walking, to Portnahaven for a coffee, to Port Charlotte for some playing (Port Mor) and then home but not before we stopped at Loch Indaal to watch the dramatic clouds and heavy rain shower coming in. You can follow our trail through the pictures, again all taken with the 10-20mm lens from James. I particularly like the two Kilchiaran pictures, the one of the interior of Kilchiaran Chapel and the other one of the cup-marked stone and chapel together, and the one of the shower arriving at Loch Indaal. Again another very nice day on Islay, weatherwise, picturewise and otherwise. See you tomorrow when I hopefully have some pictures of the peat cutting workshop on the Oa with Rachel MacNeill of Wild and Magic Islay.
