Oban to Aberdeen via the Outer Hebrides and Orkney
Tour outline
Thursday: Train from Tring to Glasgow via Euston, one night in Glasgow, then a train to Oban in time for the afternoon ferry to Castlebay, Barra. Then the tour proper begins on Saturday morning, cycling from Barra up through the Outer Hebridian Islands with time to meander and explore. By Wednesday we should reach Stornoway for the ferry to Ullapool on mainland Scotland, then up further North and around the top to Orkney by the second Monday. There we have four days to explore before catching the overnight ferry to Aberdeen, followed by First Class train travel home. Two and a half weeks, done!

Who could this be...
This outfit should have come to Scotland with us, but apparently failed the weight test. Thanks to Jenny for sharing the picture.
That's definitely Supergirl! But, hang on, is she clutching an arthritic hip or holding her pants up!
