Hebridean spring
May 27th, 2006
After a mammoth few months of non-stop working, last week brought a brief but incredible trip to the Outer Hebrides. After a rail journey to Oban, we caught a ferry to Lochboisdale (South Uist).
We then cycled up through Benbecula, North Uist, Berneray, South Harris, Scalpay and back via Skye.
Photos are now available, highlights include:
The A865 which cuts through the islands – single file, long and slightly wiggly:

Berneray hostel, amazingly thatched, and an amazing beach-side location – overlooking the Sound of Harris:

Beach and clear waters at the southern end of Harris:

A lasagne pie from Steak and Bake in Broadford, best thing I’ve ever tasted.

Great pictures! (Though not sure about the pie).
There’s more pictures of Outer Hebrides beaches on my blog at:
