    Born and bred in Lochranza. Love seeing it from the air. As never seen that Vista before.
    Wish you had flown over the ferry and pier though.
    That was the focal point of the village for decades. 👌

    Ferry to ardrossan is only 5 mins from my house.
    The campsite at Lochranza is something else, the deer come of the golf course and walk through the campsite at night. Sure wakes you up when you nearly bump into them going to the toilet.

    Nice to see Arran again Rob as I camped around the island in 2008. Didn't get to see the places you have filmed so a bonus there. Beautifully filmed with a nice atmosphere 👌 spot on mate. I remember the ferry costing me £72.00 for a return ticket back then for my car. I bet it's a bit more now.

    • @PackTheVanAndGo
      @PackTheVanAndGo  Рік тому +1

      Chatting to a friend who lives there, the ferry costing had to drop to being back tourism... so now its about £40 for a return ticket... Lovely island though and could have easily spent longer on there!

    You had great travel companions on your trip too. Archie looked like he loved it too. That's always great to see.
    Arran is a magical place. It's somewhere every kid should visit . There's so many great things to see. I've said to Gary in a comment before. He's giving Amika such a rich and exciting childhood. I always nod my head with respect every time I see the experiences he's giving her.
    Good luck with the rest of your Scotland trip 👍 . Btw, how long were you on Arran?. It's great to spend a few days on the island in Summer. Climb Goatfell with Archie if you want an extra challenge .
