Another day's travelling yesterday brought to the Isle of Iona. A pilgrimage hotspot, being the site where Columba brought Christianity to Scotland in the sixth century, it is still home to an active monastic community. Walking round the abbey was a special moment for me, as I'm so used to seeing them in ruins. There is a real atmosphere of prayer radiating outwards, from the cloisters to the glorious beaches and beyond.
I have been watching your travels with great interest. Everything you see has such "history". You'll see what I mean when you come to Canada. I'm assuming this trip is just the beginning of world travel for you!
ReplyDeleteJenni is jealous of you seeing the Harry Potter viaduct! I see your mams still looking for the ideal coffee shop then. Excellent adventure craig and we hope to see you soon.
