Mallaig – Day 26
It is still
raining is this still possible, who would want to come here for a holiday?

| Visitors from the Isle of Barra |
The fishing
boats which have stayed here over the weekend have left, is this a good sign?
At 11.00
Craig arrived, a new crew member to relieve Syd. Craig is a member of the yacht club and had
driven up in my car, after spending the night in a hotel on Loch Lomond. While Syd was taking the car back to my home
and staying the night, before catching the train the next day to his home in
Penzance, Cornwall. Thank you Syd for the good company and help along the way.
Miraculously
it stopped raining at 18.00, we walked along to the station and watched the
steam train leave at 18.40 for its journey to Fort William. Into the Co-op to get provisions before going
into the ‘Chlachain Inn’ for a meal and at 19.00, I could see the back edge of
the rain in the black cloud above.

An hour
later and it was a different world as the sun appeared, too good to miss, as we
strolled round the harbour in this new light.
Early to bed
and looking forward to being back at sea tomorrow.
