Come and see the sites

With wind in our backs and merely 53 kilometres to cycle we had a treat today.

At the Calanais Standing Stones was it hard to make a photo without de group of about 15 tourist standing in the centre touching, almost hugging, the large stone. Not only was it annoying, it was also a kind of disrespectful.
I managed though. I now have to use the PRO settings of my mobile phone, because the automatic mode produces very dark photos. It will take some getting used to, but I think it gives a good result.

We continued to the Gearrannan Blackhouse Village. It is a very small museum. Two houses are accessible, one with furnishings and a weaving demonstration and the other with a film and information boards about the history of the village. There is also a cozy restaurant where we had a nice lunch.

We arrived at our geusthouse and felt very tired.
Tomorrow we're going to Stornoway, take the very to Ullapool and consider our cycle tour along the coastline of Great Britain as completed. Whether we will ever cycle around Northern Ireland remains to be seen.
