Reunion on the Mull of Kintyre

Oban is a nice port on the West coast and gave us an amazing sunset last night.

We set off shortly after 9am but got no further than the drive of our B&B before my chain broke again! Luckily I had bought a spare chain yesterday but it took a little time to fix as it needed to be shortened.

The coast road South of Oban is beautiful with a couple of serious hill climbs.

One thing that has touched us during this trip is the generosity of people we have met along the way. We have had generous donations for our charity from landladies as well as random passers-by that we have met.

When we arrived in Lochgilpead we were met by a schoolfriend of Jane, Anne and her husband Peter who welcomed us with waving flags and champagne. We had a lovely meal and gossip in a local pub.

We have now completed almost 1/3 of our journey. Tomorrow we get to Arran.
