Quite a long day. We first cycled to Vatersay, then back to Barra, to the airport (extra). We missed the morning ferry to Eriskay by about 10 minutes and the next one was at 15:45, so back to the airport for a leisurely lunch, then coffee and cake while we waited. The climb to the top of Eriskay was a bit brutal, but short and we were soon on the causeway to South Uist. The cycle after that was not as stunning, and against the wind (thankfully it was not too strong) but I certainly still enjoyed it! We are staying in a lovely wee hostel owned by the Gatliff Trust, in a beautiful location at the top of South Uist.
