    It's a good job smirf didn't breakdown on the ferry, otherwise all those cars would have been stranded.

    • @PoshcatsCamping

      Haha… yes, we thought it would be tricky if the cars got stuck up there and had to go back and forth on the ferry all day 🤣🤣 Trev

    Nice smooth crossing - have Oscar & Sophie stayed in the van before on a ferry? My dog (Hamish) would be better left in the van - he's not keen on the stairs on the ferries - or the vibrating floor 😊🤪

      We took them across to France on the Dover to Dunkirk ferry a few years back and they stayed in the car. That was when we had a caravan. They are happy to remain in their beds. As long as we give them a nice walk before and after the crossing 😃🦮🦮 Trev

    Coming into Ullapool from Stornoway is such a sad feeling especially as I'm heading back to East London. Wished I lived on the island.

    Really enjoying your road trip through Scotland, Trev and Sue. Amazing scenery. Great footage when the ferry came into view and on the ferry.

      We were very excited to see the boats in the mist. There were several people taking photographs at the edge of the water. Thank you for following our journey 😃🚐 Trev n Sue

    Hi both, great journey to Ullapool, loved how the mist was all around the ferry as it came into the harbour, great video, thank you for sharing x

      We enjoyed the ferry. It was a grey day but was a fun trip with the anticipation of arriving on the islands 😃🚐 Trev n Sue

    Nice video. I always stop for a moment by the Lolaire memorial in Stornoway. Such a such a sad tragic event.
    If you visit the Callanais Stones get there either late or early as then can take better photos without other peeps getting in shot 😂😂😂
    Anyway hope the weather improves for you.

    • @PoshcatsCamping
      @PoshcatsCamping  3 роки тому +1

      You are right about arriving early, we went to the Blackhouses first and should have done it the other way round. Great tip tho 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev

    How cool, we've never had our rig on a ferry...yet :) Looked like a nice ride, maybe a few rollers but not too bad right? What an adventure. Can't wait to see Stornoway! Debbie - BluWave Odyssey

      Yes it’s the first time for Smirf and he did very well. Some of the ramps were a little steep but they cleared his underbelly quite nicely 😉 Nice and compact to manoeuvre onboard too 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev

      It’s not too scary. The staff who guide you on board are very helpful and answer any questions and support you driving to the correct spot. It’s all very safe and organised. We enjoyed it even though I (Trev) don’t sail well, I sometimes get sick just looking at a boat 🤣🤣 Trev

    Loving that shot of the ferry coming through the fog. That's really pretty. We went on a ferry once in Texas. But that was before our yt days. Man we missed a lot of footage before youtube lol. Looks like a great ferry ride. Look forward to the next segment :)

    • @PoshcatsCamping
      @PoshcatsCamping  3 роки тому +1

      The ferry ride was pretty good and not too bumpy. The start of the day was very misty and it hung on the water until mid morning. We did have some sunshine on the islands 😃🚐 Trev
