We then caught yet another ferry over to Harris.
Harris
We visited a couple of shops selling Harris tweed and saw an exhibition of the weaving.
We then drove onto Lewis - Harris and Lewis are really the same island.
Lewis
The scenery was very similar to Harris.
We then made our way to Stornaway - and actually found somewhere which is much windier than The Lizard!
Carvings of the Lewis Chessmen
More carvings around Stornaway
We then caught our final ferry from Stornaway to Ullapool.
to be continued…….
Looks like the perfect time to visit Harris -tweeds. Very smart to consult the maps - as GPS not always reliable. Looks very open and like our flat lands here, Anne.
