Imke on the Big Strand, Isle of Islay

Picture of a woman sitting on a log on a wide beachTaking you back to 2007 with this picture, my sister Imke sitting on a log on the Big Strand doing something with her camera. This is just below the airport, where we were waiting for our parents to arrive for a family holiday on Islay.

Plane at Islay International Airport

Picture of a passenger plane at a small local airportOK, I admit, the title is a bit of an exaggeration. The only scheduled flights from Islay’s small airport are to Glasgow, Colonsay and Oban (via Colonsay). However, I’m quite sure that there have been flights arriving from abroad, England, Ireland, Wales and other places, so the International isn’t that far fetched.
