Three full days on North Uist: 1) Balranald beach and nature reserve (next to the campsite); 2) Berneray and Clachan Sands; 3) Langass and Lochmaddy. Mostly cloudy with some mizzle and a sunnier middle day.

We’re now on the Isle of Lewis after a rather fleeting visit to Harris. Bit more time here and potentially somewhat rainy, so we’ll try to get up to date with blogging…
