North Uist

Stopped last night at the Uig campsite, right next to the ferry terminal. It's a ok little campsite but they pipe music into the toilet block, may be it's to stop people sleeping in there when the weather is bad and the wind is blowing. Last night we listened to "Take To The Floor" on BBC Radio Scotland. It's a show of Scottish music and it's a bit of a tradition for us to listen to when um the highlands.
Woke this morning to bright warm sunshine, it was that warm we even eat our breakfast sitting outside. Our ferry was early afternoon so we spent a lovely lazy morning sitting in the sun, Tina read her book and I practiced the banjo.
In the afternoon we caught the ferry from Uig to Lochmaddy on North Uist, the ferry took 1 3/4 hours and the sea was flat calm.
Once off the ferry we had a little leg stretch and now we are camped a Carinish with a lovely little beach for Bonnie to play on.
