Craighouse then Craobh

Craighouse is "Jura's population centre" and several people live there. Jura is famous for its whisky and its paps. 

On the way, I saw a minke whale.

We anchored outside the distillery and went for a walk. The stream smelt of beer; Jean explained that this was from the malt used to make the whisky. 
Craighouse is a pleasant, friendly and pretty place.

Jean goes to the shop.

Up at 0630 (something of a lie in) and almost ran aground leaving the bay.

Next to Craobh. Difficult to spell, challenging to pronounce and an almost impossible marina in which to berth, but we sailed all the way there, parked and had short siesta. 

Our voyage through the Sound of Jura (not a sequel to a 1965 film starring Julie Andrews) was indeed beautiful. The water was flat and we glimpsed some porpoises.
