Plus two PiP's The Caledonian MacBrayne ferry MV Lord of the Isles (Righ nan Eilan in Gaelic) departs Armadale, Isle of Skye bound for Mallaig . Although the ferry is in fact leaving Skye, I thought the music fairly appropriate;-) Music by Katy Adelson - (Skye Boat Song) on fiddle www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAcHJZdydQM

Armadale (Scottish Gaelic: Armadal) is a village near the southern end of the Sleat Peninsula, on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. Like most of Sleat, but unlike most of Skye, the area is fairly fertile, and though there are hills, most do not reach a great height. It looks out over the Sound of Sleat, to Morar and Mallaig. The village is also a small port, and has a regular Caledonian MacBrayne ferry service to Mallaig. It is at the southern end of the A851 road.
