Letter from Iona - #8

Hi all:

Sadly today we have been unable take our exciting hike from Glen Forsa to Glen More on the Isle of Mull. It was going to be very exciting because we were to see a landing strip, a Piper Cub (airplane), a crashed DC-3 Dakota and hopefully some wild deer and beautiufl scenery. But, unfortunately, we have been rained out! That's okay though as it gives us more time to plan and put together some food for this adventure. Basically, it is an 8 mile hike (or 3 hours) from Glen Forsa to Glen More and would need to be started earlier in the day to make sure that we didn't miss the bus going back to Iona!!

Not much has happened here this week. Dan went to see a celtic harp concert on Sunday evening that was just amazing. The harpist is going to be travelling to Nova Scotia this fall on tour. Anyway, it was quite good.

Our plans for our onward journey are progressing and we look forward to it every single day. We are now at the half way point in our working as our last day is to be September 24th, leaving on the 25th.

By the way, our wedding date has been set too. We're just so proactive over here!!:) We're getting married on September 9th, 2006 and the craziness of planning is just beginning. But it's so much fun!:)

As the weather is clearing here now, we're planning a hike to the southern part of the island today and of course, Scooter will be making the trek as well. Pics to follow, I'm sure.

Anyway, we hope that the heat wave has broken in mid-southern Ontario now and that you are all enjoying the summer.
