Day 18. Made it past Oban

After a 5.30am get up with bacon butties lovingly made by Sal we set
off just before 7am. The weather was great, a calm sunny start saw us
swiftly through the Dorus Mor, assisted by the tide and for the first
time in the whole trip a south westerly wind we sped on to Atlantic
Bridge, where we met up with Lara and Sal for another great chip butty
in the local pub. Back on the water for a couple of hours tail wind
surfing up past Kererra to Sea Kayak Oban. We popped in to see Cathy
and Stuart, but they weren't in. We told the shop worker what we were
doing, and she asked if we were paddling back to Snowdon!! Not really
sure she understood the distance and undertaking we'd gone through
already to get to Oban!!! Found another chilled wild camp ground just
round the corner from the Falls of Lora, and now the dinner is on....
Just 48km left to paddle before the Ben.. Xx
