My photo diary of a walking holiday on the Island of Rum.  Our group,  comprising seven walkers from Dumfries including two oldies, left Dumfries in the early morning of Friday 22nd June, 2001 and arrived in Mallaig in time for the daily ferry to Rum. 

Tidal conditions dictated that Canna should be the first port of call. Mallaig to Rum,  normally taking about  two hours, was stretched to four.  We all enjoyed the unexpected bonus of excellent views of Rum and Canna on a bright afternoon.
