Tag 88 - Isle of Mull

Hey together

Today we woke up at 8 o'clock already, as our camper turned into a sauna. Yes, unbelievable: In Scotland it is actually really warm :).

Then, you won't believe it: we went jogging. Although only for a short time, our fitness is definitely at a low point... But we are really motivated to do this every day now :).

Later we did some research on what you can do and see in the area. We came across a provider where you can snorkel with whale sharks or seals. Snorkeling with whale sharks... That has been a dream for so long! Unfortunately, all the tours were already fully booked... But we found out where the snorkeling with the seals takes place. Allegedly on a small neighboring island. We quickly checked the ferry connections and booked right away. Leaving today and coming back on Sunday evening for a total of 57 pounds! We didn't have to think twice about it :).

In the afternoon we did some laundry, cleaned the camper and refueled. Now everything was ready and we were already running out of time. You had to be at the harbor by 5:40 p.m. - we joined the line at 5:35 p.m. Yep... Typical for us :). But everything worked out :)).

We enjoyed the warm weather and the view on the ferry. It was a really nice crossing, on a very calm sea.

Here on the island, it's pure nature, as you know it from Scottish pictures. A little bit more than on the mainland. The roads are 90% so narrow that two vehicles cannot pass each other. There are special passing places for that. We drove and drove until we suddenly found ourselves on a hiking trail. We joked that this was definitely not "vacation brochure holidays" and were really convinced for a long time that we would find a great spot. However, after a few hours of driving, we were faced with a closed gate. And when we tried another way, the same thing happened. After several kilometers of bumpy tracks and sweaty, narrow spots, there was only one way out: back to the right road. But we have seen so much, had three deer right in front of us, and a real adventure. The drive was really fun! But at 11:30 p.m., we just wanted a place to sleep - who cares about the sea view. We made a quick mashed potato mix without sauce, without anything, because we were both really exhausted.

We hope you understand that the pictures will only follow tomorrow :).

So, we will go to sleep soon and will be back tomorrow.

See you then
