Arrived in Oban by train from Glasgow on Tuesday, September 10. Occasional rain during the trip and all the time, really. We’re starting at a hotel on the harbor, Perle Oban. It’s very nice, well appointed, breakfast and spa included, and we have a room with a view of the harbor. Everyone we’ve met have been friendly and accomdating.
We had dinner last night at EE-USK, https://www.eeusk.com/. Very busy. Glad we had a reservation. Good and service was excellent. Absolutely fresh mussels and scallops.
There was an appendage on each scallop, something over not seen before. This indicates freshness as they are usually removed before shipping.
it turned cold with a strong wind overnight, continuing on today. We bought hiking sticks and took a walk along the harbor up towards Dunollie castle. Really nice walk in occasionally rain and sunshine with string cold wind.
On the way back we stopped for a bite at Aulay’s Bar, https://aulaysbar.co.uk/, listed as a traditional Scottish pub. Nice place frequented by tourists, as we are, and locals. Of course I had Cullen sink and a pint.
