Brave smile from Maggie as we cross the fearsome Gulf of Corrievreckan ... in all honesty it was a bit of a damp squib. No whirlpool, no howling noise and not even very much in the way of waves.
But the coasts of Scarba and Jura are magnificent and it was brilliant to see a sea eagle

A double rainbow and the view of Edinburgh Castle from Andrew's office window... the joys of Embra!

It's gone ... the Falco is with someone else. I'm gutted but the BMW R1200 GS is a brilliant replacement and much more to Maggie's liking for touring! However, if I win the Lottery I'm buying the Aprilia back for my "garage".
