Great Journey 🏴 Day 675

great journey 🏴 day 675 we sleep on the harbour car park of stornaway


We sleep in the harbour car park in Stornaway. We have been more comfortable. Quieter too. That the ferry docks noisily at night: okay. That there are cars parked in a municipal car park: sure. That young people have different waking times than we do: logos. And that seagulls produce a lot of bio-noise from 4 a.m.: we could have known that.

If we're up this early, we'll do the laundry, have a leisurely breakfast, go to the town museum and then criss-cross the island of Lewis. All the way up to the Butt of Lewis.

Up here, we stroll along the cliffs in the strong wind, admire this incredible water once again, watch the seals sinning and end up at what is probably the northernmost lighthouse in the Hebrides.

After a long walk and a fair amount of catching up on sleep (we are slowly getting into the nap age!) we look for a nice pitch, meet an English couple and suddenly it is evening. We laugh a lot and learn a lot about Scotland, England, America and, if we hadn't put on the brakes at some point, about the rest of the world.

However, in the evening we have to compare our two experiences: The two of them spoke English so quickly and we plan the following: from now on we have to agree on who remembers which half. So that we can then, comfortably in Felix, put the whole story together.

Or was it not their speaking speed at all, but the restless night in Stornaway Downtown? Or are we even so slow, completely slowed down, dawdled away, leisurely on the road?
