woo hoo! almost time to leave!

I got the last booking reply I was looking for. I'll be staying at the charming looking Mo Dhachaidh ("Our Home") Guest House in Kyleakin on Thursday night.

Just to repeat (for fun and as a precaution for anyone who might need to get a hold of me in an emergency)

Sunday, Monday: McLay's Guest House, Glasgow
Tuesday: Coruisk House, Elgol
Wednesday: Raasay House, Raasay
Thursday: Mo Dhachaidh Guest House, Kyleakin
Friday: Glasgow Airport Travelodge, Glasgow
Saturday: back here in my own bed

Looking forward to museums, a castle, mountains, seals, whales, good music, good food and drink, the ever-exciting experience of driving in rural Scotland.

I got extra food and litter in for the cats. I printed out all the confirmations of hotels *and* directions to them (no more Knockderry fiasco, [profile] poliscidiva!), rental car booking, boat engagements, ferry timetables. I have my AA atlas, my brand new compass, my waterbottles, and my good hiking boots. In the morning I have to go out and photocopy my passport and a few other things, for safety's sake, and then empty my wallet of all those things I won't need for a week that it would be a bother to lose. Plus I need still to finish up some laundry, pack, and ... go to the airport! :-) (Blessings on [livejournal.com profile] redactrice and [livejournal.com profile] shy_kat for dropping me at the airport; I have the best housemates ever!)

Now no one has to listen to me blather on about this (until I come back and post about how much fun it was :-)

Will you post pics to look at for us? I am a bit Scottish so it would make my heart smile. Thanks

I am so pleased you will be coming over again! :-) Have a great time and *enjoy*. I wish we could get together with you, but your schedule doesn't make it possible this time. Perhaps next time or maybe you could visit us in the warm south. :-)
