This week’s Photo Hunt No. 23 (Week of June 10, 2018) – Small Town Stay
What an amazing photo collection of boats and ships everyone! I also enjoyed reading the descriptions and stories behind your photos. From the high masts, large cargo ships, wooden boats, gondolas and fishing/oyster and transport boats. Very impressive.

Photo Hunt No. 30 (Week of July 29, 2018) – Something Blue
In Scotland (2009), I wanted to visit the Highlands and the Isle of Sky. I rented a car and drove the famous Road to the Isles from Fort William to Mallaig.. Rather than staying in the bigger town of Mallaig where I needed to catch the ferry to the Isle of Sky, I decided to stay in the very small but oh so charming town of Arisaig. And what a treat it was. This town is also a stop on the West Highland Railway Line (if you prefer to travel by train). There was one main street , a post office and a little grocery store. Across the road is Loch Nan Ceall. I stayed at the very beautiful Arisaig Hotel (which I highly recommend). They had a great restaurant and bar where even the locals frequented. I based there for 3 days while I explored the surrounding areas like the Silver Sands of Morar and Lock Morar. I also saw the very famous Highland cows grazing nearby. I traveled in November so the weather was very sketchy. This photo doesn’t do the town justice but there was something very peaceful about my evening walks along the foot path in this tiny town with the mist rolling in from the Loch. The town of Arisaig is one of my favorites. I really enjoy discovering small towns while traveling. We need to do a Small Town Part II thread to showcase more travel ideas.
