…with a short stop at Coll.
On an absolutely dreich day yesterday I persevered with my lap top and did a little bit of editing. There's no aeroplanes, no commentary, just 5mins of scenery to brighten up the day for anyone in need of their day being brightened and for whom scenery scratches the itch.
For reference, Coll is west of Mull, about a 2hr 45min ferry from Oban. So kinda remote.
In July @Nick and I, having packed the tents at Glenforsa, set off to visit Tiree and Coll. We dropped down to, from memory, 1500' and were still significantly above an undercast. It niggled a little that we had to turn back. A few weeks later on a beautiful cloudless August morning I set off to go flying with no particular destination in mind and eventually had the thought; 'this has to be a day for Coll". As you will see as I fly west I discover an overcast and so didn't quite see it at its best (it was duller than it appears). Quite incredible to see. Nevertheless I did land at Coll and in doing so have only heightened my desire to go back.
