Supplies stop in Tobermory

We had planned to go to the island of Coll but decided instead that food, water and laundry was about due and Tobers has a Co-op supermarket and a very good seafood restaurant.
On the gentle sail past Island of Muck we saw some Minke Wales. Fantastic!
Minke Whale. Small dorsal fin with long back that appears to be forward of the fin.

This is the famous Tobermory cat
 

Arderlarnish Isle of Mull Weavers
We stayed an extra day and rented a car to cross the island to Arderlarnish Isle of Mull Weavers. Here  we bought some wool (lots of it !) and a blanket.
We also got a guided tour of the weaving machines and were enthralled by the charming and knowledgeable lady who was attending the shop and premises. Our appreciation to her (we didn't ask her name..)


 
 


The shop with products of the farm industry. Mostly woven in house using wool from a variety of different sheep.
