Good morning Mrs Cow!

10:13:54
Me looking at a cow. Erm.

10:33:45
Dad looking at the house at Galmisdale.

10:35:24
We were going to spend the next few hours trying to get to the top of that!

10:35:38
A view back to the mainland on our way up to the top of the Sgurr. Nice sky!

10:44:43
Nearly caught up with the rest of the party...

10:46:21
Everywhere you looked there were a load of irresistible views.

10:47:49
Wanted to get a picture with me in!

10:55:58
Lovely sky here.

11:15:04
One of the Lochens (as far as I can tell just means mini Loch). I think this is the Loch of the Big Women - identifiable by the little island in the middle. There is a siren like legend attached to this Loch.

11:15:20
Here's me with the previous view behind.

11:19:00
Interesting view down the side of the mountain, you can just about see some old ruins towards the bottom.

11:31:53
Me on top ofthe Sgurr! I think I was the first to the top.

11:35:41
Dad looking out over Muck.

11:42:56
Out across the island.

11:43:05
Some of the rest of the party up on the top.

11:43:12
Another view across the island.

11:47:46
People enjoying the view from the top.

11:55:07
On the way back down. My Dad tells me this is quite a rarity.

12:03:26
A rocky bit.

12:44:02
The house at Galmisdale again.

12:53:39
Inside the little bothy on the side of the Galmisdale house.

12:55:58
Dad relaxing in an old armchair in one of the many rooms of the house.

12:59:05
A look up the staircase.

13:05:53
The little bothy on the side's bathroom! Needs a bit of a clean methinks!

13:10:36
Bedroom above the bothy.

13:12:12
The corridor linking the bothy and the main house.

13:15:04
Outside the house.

13:20:27
A look at the house from the field just below.

13:20:47
Same view again, but with a better view of the bothy on the side.

13:52:31
Now walking down away from the house towards the lodge.

13:58:05
An interesting bit of fungus.

14:02:13
A view towards the lodge - looks totally out of place on Eigg!

14:03:13
A palm tree! This is meant to be me doing that Hawaiian hula dance thing.

14:03:44
The famous chilean fire tree in the lodge gardens.

14:05:25
My Dad the burglar!

14:07:12
In the lodge's kitchen, and it's a bit too dark!

14:07:36
Some celtic phrases up on the wall. Tha mi ag iarraidh cupan ti!

14:09:17
The main corridor upstairs in the lodge.

14:10:36
