Arrival on the Isle of Arran

After travelling from around the globe to sunny Scotland, today marks the day that we all set off to start our Arran adventure.

Meeting at Glasgow Central station, it looked like a 14 year old's school disco, boys on one side, girls on the other. Following the grease mega mix + I got a feeling, Black Eyed Peas, we all hopped onto the ferry.

After surviving the choppy seas with luckily just windswept hair, we hit the shores of Arran. Following much deliberation with the bus driver Batman & Robin (Our Leaders Wally & Rob) managed to cram all 14 of us + our luggage onto the small island bus, much to the annoyance of all the other passengers.

Dumping all our wordly belongings in the hall way we were given the grand tour of our new home away from home.

All unpacked, beds made, tent pitched, introductions had, uno started w,e began our deliciously made evening meal. Some of us then bravely ventured out into the wild to discover two common seals tanning it up on a rock.

We are now waiting anxiously for our leader to tell us about the John Muir award and what crazy adventure we have actually signed ourselves up for!

Wish us luck!

Summary of the day: Train, Ferry, Bus, Bonding, Birds & Seals!
