On the Wednesday, we slept long, and didn't really contemplate going for a cycle. We spent much of the day in conversation with those at no 8, and enjoyed a leisurely walk down the village to see the seal colony on the road to Finsbay, which I have never been aware of seeing before. Norman was taken aback by that.
We did a little to earn our keep by moving some sand off the driveway and into a convenient corner, but we were interrupted by midgies and rain. Norman completed the task wearing a midgie net, which gave him the appearance of an intruder from another planet in a Ray Bradbury story, with a hint of Ned Kelly.

| Roneval - a glorious afternoon after a turbulent and wet morning |

| Well populated seal colony near Finsbay - a great find. |
To have one holiday in Harris in a summer feels right, and satisfying, and good. To have a second visit is luxurious.
