Firth of Clyde to Belfast

Millport-Troon-Lamlash-Sanda Is.-Glenarm-Copeland Is.-Belfast
(Route, with errors, http://www.a-trip.com/tracks/view/108768 )
From a soggy start the week has improved and we're now in the warm sunny heart of Belfast.
Here's that blue sheep again! Three men and a sheep this time (no.3 man a bit hidden). 

He's on the little island of Sanda, which seemed deserted for our visit. You can see this sheep/goat, a real one, at another corner of Sanda, was very surprised to see anyone. The little hump in the background is the island of Ailsa Craig.
As ever, there are highlights too frequent to cover, but here is last night's sunset off the N. Irish Copeland Island, and a cruise ship parked nearby as we entered Belfast docks this morning.


Crew have been fantastically efficient so we've had the cruising chute out again (and I can now get it hoisted, touch wood, in less than half an hour.)
