The journey to Jura

We caught the 9.30am ferry to Claonaig on Mull of Kintyre from Lochranza, Isle of Arran. We had 5 minutes from the campsite to reach the ferry and we cycled full pelt to make it. My bicycle isn't as fast as F's so I had a whole audience of cyclists and ferrymen urging me to hurry up then laughing as I appeared red-faced at the end of the ramp. 'What time do you call this?' I was asked.

It was great to see so many cyclists on the ferry, including those on tandems.

At Claonaig, we cycled over the Mull of Kintyre and caught the ferry to Islay where we immediately boarded the ferry to Jura. A short cycle ride took us to our campsite and a new adventure! The smell of whisky lingered around the tent - the campsite is right beside the Jura distillery. Bonus.
