Our Oban adventure #2

We're coming to the end of our week away in rainy Oban so many good views, so many good foods, a few cheeky whiskeys and Moo has fallen over so many times her poor head looks like a Zapp lolly and she wasn't even the one enjoying the whiskey.
We're now sat in Glasgow at K's uncles a little stop off on the way home just to break up the journey home and I'm just thinking back to the things we've done this week one of our big days out we decided to take the cable cars up to the Nevis range mountain so the girls could do a bit of sledging and play in the snow. 


Later in the week grandad, the girls and I decided to take a walk up to McCaig's tower and throw parachute action man off to see if he would survive, one of grandad's wacky ideas (that's what grandad's are for) and just have a little walk to get some fresh air ( happens to be a lot of that here.) 


On the way back down, with one very muddy and grumpy girl due to slipping down the hill,we had a little stop off at the Oban distillery something granddad and I could enjoy, then walked back down by the sea front and managed to grab some shells for the girls to paint sometime next week when we need to fill the void left by Scotland. 


Another one of our big days out and a first for Moo was taking the ferry over to mull for a bit of swimming. 
She was so excited to go on the big boat and spent the whole time either on deck or looking out the window at the sea, she even managed to spot a little island that she now believes belongs to her and is where she is going to live when she's a big girl. 


Once off the boat we took a slow walk which turned into a run once the rain picked up to a nice hotel which had swimming for the girls and an outside jacuzzi for mum and dad to enjoy, so after an amazing swim and lovely lunch/dinner we went back to the ferry where the girls were a bit too sleepy to enjoy there second ferry ride and got back just in time to see the sun set over the beautiful back drop of Oban. 


Our week in Oban has been full of amazing sight, amazing food ( little too much ) and amazing adventures all in all a great week and can't wait till next time.
