Scotland Adventures: Oban

June 8, 2016 By Leave a Comment

With daylight that stretched into the late evening hours, and a midnight “dusk” that literally takes your breath away, the quaint seaside village of Oban was the perfect gateway to our journey out to the Isles of Mull, Iona, and Staffa.

Along the waterfront, during our visit, was a fun display of artwork by the town’s children: wood planks featuring their hand prints, names and ages, and decorated uniquely by each. They stretched the entire length of the waterfront, and under the magical evening light, were fun to study, imagining the faces that went along with each of the tiny hand prints.

  • Magic Mountain, summer 1978. The Colossus had just opened, as the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world. My post-ride glow is showing through the clown makeup. Of course, I pretty much always had this glow when spending time with my dad!
