Today is it of a rest day, supposedly after Donald's and Mines escapades of yesterday.
I am in a lot of discomfort n pain, but the holiday must go on,as I cannot ruin it for everybody else and we have some much to cram in as Donald n Val are only here for a week.
Today we are going to two more of Timothy's favourite places, the sea life sanctuary ad castle stalker
Norton Commando - What a smooth ride across.
We arrive at the Sea Life Sanctuay
Michael Osborn following in Tims ootsteps
with Michael Osborn. Always nice to see ya kids having fun with the little things, even tho they are somewhat older kids :) :)
The light house by the ferry
the loch is silky smooth today
Far better than any of those I have seen in the UK, and definitely worth every penny
Emma Osborn joins in
Emma Osborn - Yes but I'm a girl we're not meant to be tall x
I am not a lover of grey squirrels as they are an invasive imported species, If they could be got rid of, I believe the natural Red Squirrels would retake there natural habitats.
these flat fish were in paces 5 or 6 deep!
This floor tank was huge, giving many view points of the fish
Rainbow Trout
Emma
loads of clear informative detail boards all around this site.
Some of the pics are not best quality due to lighting conditions.
And asked not to use flashes.
this cheeky sod kept posing for the cameras
The turtles were great, many are rescue
View into the lock
Recovering Sea Lions
Otters, hard to find as they all resting part from one
Norton Commando - Oh, so incredable.
Just gotta have another go :) :)
Tim fav drink, hot chocolate, chocolate, chocoalate and yet more chocolate with cream, marsh mellows and malteasers
Norton Commando - Most Excellent.
whilst everyone else was in the shop
I went outside the cafe to take some pics, and i dropped my wallet, i looked around but couldn't see it, I did see a lady rushing away, so we get onto the banks to get me cards stopped and the £600.00 cash is really gonna be sorely missed.....
Stephen Osborn - Sure was - and things were very quiet for a while, luckily we have great kids
Stephen Osborn - Dunno m8, some of that money was to pay the balance for our chalet. Luckily Donald & Val have been staying there for years and were really friendly with the landlord.
I promised to send the balance by cheque a week after we got home, and he agreed :) :)
Shane Phillips - There are loads and loads of honest people, but only takes one dishonest one to ruin the day
So I went back inside and had another of Tim's fav hot chocolates !!
Time to head back to the chalet
its getting late in the evening and were back at the ferry.
Damm just missed it !!
the name of our cabin
we go down to the cabin a quick tea and were pretty soon all fast asleep.
Even I couldn't resist the stepping logs :) :)
Donald, Val n me resting, I think we all gonna sleep very deeply tonight :) :)
Norton Commando - Looks like you've been very energised.
We've been hear over 4 hours and could have spent even longer, but its time to head off to Castle Stalker
We are back on the road again.
I am doing a;ll the driving today, it just seemed pointless using 2 tanks of fuel and were we had to, pay for 2 cars..
Castle Stalker was closed by the time we got there, so we will come back another time...
The castle is still lived in
Norton Commando - WOW, What a kings castle. It would be nice to stay there a few days. Fantastic view.
The back up ferry, as the one we used this morning had broken down.
if this one breaks down or has to go away to be serviced.
its a 70 odd mile trip!
Sally the Seat having a well earned rest
