Big rocks
A lot of these islands are made of big rocks, red hot and liquid in their first form, cooling to form the huge and sombre cliff faces that we sailed past today. And then, in between, the flat sandy beaches, looking tropical, but not so, even though the sun was shining and the sea glittered and dolphins rolled past us and massed birds skimmed the water.
It was borderline cold.
The high cliffs seem to lean over the sea and seem morose and fantastic. Clouds gather over them, rather than over the sea, rolling into fantasy faces, and brilliant in the sunlight.
Tobermory looks like a collection of doll's houses.
