Fair Isle 1
I made it. Unbelievable. I don't believe it, any way, sitting here watching the waves crash over rocks taller than houses. I was on that water, 48 hours ago, in a tiny, tiny boat. Thank goodness for seatbelts, is all I can say - and seasickness pills!
I tried to take some photos of the shore, but the wind buffets you about so much I couldn't get anything in focus, so instead, here are some (I think) Maritime Sunburst Lichen, growing in a comparatively calm dip in the land.
Somehow I think I'll have no shortage of big waves to photograph in the weeks ahead ...

I'm envious - one of the few islands I haven't visited.
Congratulations on getting there! It’ll be grand!
Just found you after Vivian posted the photo of you with the children. I'll be following with much anticipation as I'll arrive for a month at the end of April. It's been 13 years since I've been to that little isle and that was just for a day. Have a WONDERFUL stay, but I know you will!
Thanks all! Definitely starting to find my feet now and gales are part of the experience ... here's wishing you calmer weather come May, Jean!
