The PrologueThe Day Trip to Barra: we will cross from Eriskay to Barra on the 1015 ferry and return on the 1545 ferry back to Eriskay. (There is another ferry at 1730 if you miss the first one and, if things go very pear-shaped, one at 0715 on Monday morning). No cars - just people and bikes. The kayaks paddle across, of course. Wait for more details... |
