Last times in Scotland Part 2: Oban

At the point when I am writing this post, I still in my hostel waiting for the train timing to arrive in Oban.
These few days in Oban, it was always blue skies and sunshine and calm seas, the most wonderful weather you can ever get in the world!

Seafood Capital it is!

Climbed Dunnollie Castle for a good view!

Mini Colloseum - McCraig Tower

Isle Hopping: Mull - Lunga - Staffa - Iona

The largest of ternish Islands - Lunga

Love the bluebell fields!

The sea is just too glorious

PUFFIN SEASON!
I took like a million photos of these puffins and it was so amazing that they were just one metre in front of me!

The next island is Staffa where the fingal cave lies.

It has these unique rock formation that is simply a sight to behold.

Just chilling at the beach in Iona

Next day - wildlifewatching!!! We say birds of prey, seals, lots of porpoise, deers and other birds. But its hard to take any nice pictures with my digital camera. So just imagine haha!

Off we go!

One of the major attractions of the area was the Corrywreckan whirlpools which was very weak at the current tide. Only certain days the whirlpool will be really strong and spectacular

On the final day we just decide to chill and walk around town and hike up to McCraig Tower to catch a paranormic view of Oban.


Seafood Capital how can dun eat seafood!
We had a lot of fun in Oban and spend a lot of money also...boat trips don't come cheap! The weather plays such a huge difference in our adventures. What a Bang to end this Scottish journey on!

So Long Scotland! Eastern Europe here we come! (it is currently flooding at the moment so in contrast the worst weather ever...let's keep our fingers crossed :P)
