Pabbay, Lewis

 After cycling back from Hamnavey we have lunch looking at the exciting seas at Mangurstadh.

Then drove over to the slipway at Valtos and paddled  through calmer waters to the island of Pabbay. What a difference it makes being protected from the swell!

The Hebrides are full of the remnants of sheilings and Black Houses. Homes of crofters were evicted  to make way for sheep.

At the rather special time of 9:30pm 29 May 2015... a rainbow appears over Bernera, as if to say "all is well"
