Knoydart on Referendum Day

18/9/2014

 
Another trip to Knoydart, this time with my partner. We take the first bus to Mallaig and from there with the Western Isles boat to Inverie. We arrive before noon and, after I put up the tent, we decide to go for a walk, as it is a very nice September day!

We walk along Loch an Dubh Lochain in the direction of Barrisdale. Shortly after the Loch my partner decides to walk back while I continue for a bit till I reach the saddle from where I can look to Barrisdale. At the ruins beside the Loch I catch up with my partner again. Together we walk to Inverie and get back just before it gets dark.

We buy a nice meal at the Knoydart Snack & Co van and go for a pint in the Old Forge after that. Around 10pm we see the lights from the Western Isles boat approach Inverie. It's Referendum Day and the boat is here to pick up the ballot papers.

It's a clear, cold night. The next day my partner takes the boat back to Mallaig, while I stay for another night in Inverie.
