An early start and onto the water by mid-morning, the weather omens all good....
...the views most acceptable...
...the wildlife engaging.....
....and the luncheon stops very fine! My overnighter had been meticulously planned to take in Rubha Reidh at slack water with arrival and departure at the intended camp site coinciding with high water.
All of which was blown away in minutes by the unexpected arrival of a strong northeasterly wind from a clear blue sky and a fraught crossing of the mouth of the loch in hefty wind against tide.
The "port of refuge" on the windward shore wasn't too bad though.
If Ewe are going to be weather-bound, might as well make it somewhere good :-)
The beach was very busy......
...and the extended stay allowed exploration of the varied textures.....
...shapes....
...and patterns.
There was a story here, and also....
..an older tale.
The sunset was nae bad...
...and the view at 11pm not too shabby either....
Ewe know what, I didn't mind this weather-bound business too much!
Still windy from a blue sky but time to leave.....
....for a morning's rock hopping and cave exploration on the way back.
Only Ewe :-)
