A morning in Tobermory in the rain! I suspect that when it's not crowded with cruise ship crowds it's a nice town. Sketch below started in the dry, and got rained on. Touched up back in the cabin and I'm quite pleased with it. #mustntgrumble #PotCallsTheKettle #CruiseShip #BoatTripNorth #Sketch #TravelSketch #scotland

The #CruiseShip delivers a daily newspaper to every cabin. This is a concise 8 A4 page printed edition produced by KVH media for cruise lines. There's just enough news in all areas (UK, global, sport, finance, celebrities) to keep up to date. There's no editorial, and no apparent bias (there will be but it's not blatant). I think I'd pay to have this type of daily digest at home. (No, it's not available to individuals) #news #Newspapers #UKNews #BoatTripNorth #Cruise

Good Morning from deck 6 of the #CruiseShip (and my bed). We seem to be just parking close to Tobermory in Scotland for the day. We aren't going on an organised trip but will get the tender into the town and spend a bit of money locally. We've been told the weather will be showers but not cold. This will be a change from the persistent drizzle we e had in the Atlantic since we left Iceland. Neither of us have been sleeping very well - I suspect we aren't getting enough exercise to make us tired! Balamory photos will hopefully follow! #Cruise #BoatTripNorth #Scotland

Very good morning from the north Atlantic. I've no idea what day or time it is because the #cruiseShip has moved to British time again, and on this type of holiday every day is a holiday. It's quite unsettling. We aren't going to be docking anywhere today, just pointing the pointy end at Tobermorry for tomorrow. This is a chance to recharge ourselves after three quite tiring days of sightseeing. Outside the cabin window it's bright and the sea is calm. I slept pretty well, but my arthritic thumbs are hurting a bit. I hope you are able to use the weekend for a bit of calm and to recharge your inner self. By the way - you look great today. #BoatTripNorth #Holiday #Cruise #FredOlsen #Today
