Today we took a ferry to the Orkney Islands |
Eef in line. |
Thurso from the ferry terminal |
The ferry coming to port |
Driving onto the ferry |
We weren't permitted to stay in the car for this 1.5 hr crossing but they had a nice lounge. |
And lots of other seating. We sat here for a while then retired to seats in a darker corner while we tried to sleep. |
Leaving port.... see the lighthouse in the background? |
I teased my sister that this home just north of Thurso was her dream home... kind of looked like castle turrets in the back. |
Clear view of the lighthouse |
An hour into the trip we started seeing some of the islands of the Orkneys. A rock pinnacle called the Old Man of Hoy is visible when it's not foggy but we didn't see it. |
Coming into the small town of Stromness on the mainland of the Orkney Islands. |
Pulling up to the dock |
