isle of mull, day 3- way back to catch a ferry from craignure

after great time at calgary bay we had to move a little bit faster to drive back to craignure to catch a ferry to oban. most of the way back we had great views to ben more and loch na'keal, and some to ulva too. we also had a 'cow experience' in the meantime...

po przyplynieciu do oban stwierdzilysmy ze zasluzylysmy na porzadny obiad przed 3 godzinna jazda do domu. bea miala talerz pelen roznych ryb (mniam) a ja wzielam talerz owocow morza - krab, ostrygi, langusty, przegrzebek i wedzony losos (mniam mniam!) ostrygi mnie zaskoczyly - sa mieciutkie, nie smierdza i maja delikatny, nieintensywny smak (uff, bo troszke sie cykalam ich jesc)

after landing in oban we decided we deserved a good dinner before our further journey to edinburgh. bea ordered fish platter (yummy!) and i went for seafood platter with crab, scallops, langoustinnes, oysters and smoked salmon. that was BRILLIANT. thanks goodness the oysters were nice, i was actually pretty scared of trying them, but they were nice, soft, non-stinky with very delicate flavour.

CALGARY BAY

wyspa mull, dzien 3, kontynuacja - ZATOKA CALGARY

po szybkim zwiedzaniu tobermory udalysmy sie dalej na zachod, do zatoki calgary. ehh, piekna piaszczysta plaza, blekitna woda, zielonosc dookola. pieknie. poza szwedaniem sie po plazy na bosaka i malym wylegiwaniem na bialym piasku poszlysmy tez sie przejsc po klifie. oczywiscie zamiast isc dookola droga, my postanowilysmy isc na przelaj i wspiac sie na klif, a co! ostatecznie po malych klopotach udalo nam sie wgramolic do gory, ale narobilysmy przy tym tyle halasu ze konie pasace sie na polanie u gory klifu przyszly sprawdzic co sie dzieje :)

isle of mull, day 3 continued - CALGARY BAY

after a quick wander in tobermory we left for calgary bay. what a beautiful place - sandy beach (nice white sand), blue water and a lot of green hills and cliffs around. apart from walking barefoot on the beach and sunbathing we also went for a walk on the cliff. of course, we didnt choose to walk around on the track, instead we followed a faint path going straight up the cliff. all in all, we managed to climb it but we did so much noise that the horses (which were having their grassy meal on to of the cliff) came to see what's going on!

plaza nie jest zbyt dluga, ale bardzo przyjemna / the beach isn't too long, but really nice

TOBERMORY

wyspa mull, dzien 3, tobermory

o tobermory, stolicy wyspy mull, nie mam w sumie za duzo do powiedzenia. jest typowa miejscowoscia jaka mozna zobaczyc na szkockich wyspach, chyba nieco ladniejsze niz portree na skye. przeszlysmy sie kawalek a potem ruszylysmy dalej, do zatoki calgary. aha -w tobermory pierwszy raz w zyciu widzialam namioty rozbite na chodniku - sledzie wbite poniedzy kafelki!

isle of mull, day 3, tobermory

i dont really have much to say about tobermory, the capital of mull. it's a town typical for scottich isles, very similar to portree on skye, maybe a little bit nicer. we just had a short walk around the town and left for calgary bay. the only thing that surprised me, actually i've never seen it before - there were tents pitched on the main tobermory car park, tents pitched on the pavenemt. i guess thats because there are toilets and showers at the marina car park therefore people use them and then stay overnight.
