Kisimul Castle

Well it was bye bye Barra this morning as we got on the ferry for the five hour crossing back to Oban and the drive home. What a wonderful time we've had. Couldn't go without blipping the mediaeval Kisimul Castle which at high tide seems to float in the sea just off Castlebay. It's only accessible by boat and is the seat of the Clan Macneil. The only other time we went to Barra (14 years ago) we went to the Castle on a tiny boat and met The Macneil i.e. the Chieftain of the Clan. He's from the States!

Go to Barra, or any of the Western Isles, if you haven't and you can. Go to the very western edge of Europe.
