We Weren't Prepared! Stornoway, Scotland Was FULL of Surprises!
Everyone around us seemed to know exactly what was happening. We stood there thinking, WHAT ON EARTH ARE WE WATCHING?! đł And that wasn't the only moment that left us speechless! We came ashore expecting a fairly simple day exploring a Scottish island. But somewhere between the fascinating history, unforgettable local encounters, and a few moments that seemed almost too strange to be real, our adventure took on a life of its own! Welcome to Stornoway, Scotland, on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides! Join Michael and Andrea of Hubbard's Journey as we set off from the Sapphire Princess to explore this incredible island on our own. No organized shore excursion, just the two of us discovering where the day takes us. Behind the impressive walls of Lews Castle lies a history we certainly didn't expect. And nearby, Museum nan Eilean holds some remarkable connections to the island's past. But as we discovered, sometimes the most memorable experiences aren't inside the places you've planned to visit. And then there's MARRIED LIFE! đ What begins as a few familiar husband-and-wife disagreements turns into an ongoing comedy throughout the day. Let's just say Andrea and I don't always agree on what constitutes a good idea! But with so much still to explore, one question keeps coming back: Are we pushing our luck?
