Christmas with dolphins

It has been absolutely freezing today (and customers are scarce). It actually snowed a couple of times - felt quite seasonal, although not the right one! However, we did see a school of 8 bottle-nosed dolphins going through the narrows including babies (calves?).

Busy busy busy

Well, we started service on the 1st April and apart from one day of bad weather we have been very busy. The Genachulish is looking very smart in her new paintwork and was greeted on her first day back by an otter coming to see what was happening - they are a bit shortsighted so sometimes come towards noise to check it out. We've also seen a sea eagle, although quite high and not very clear.

Season starts with a flurry

Welcome to spring in the Highlands. The Glenachulish starts 2010 ferry service tomorrow and there is a white-out!. Hopefully the snow will clear and we can begin to enjoy ourselves after our hard work with the paint brushes and welding torch.
