After visiting the Outer Hebrides a few years ago Mireille and myself had already re-visited the lower half of the string of Scottish islands last year, and this year we decided that we would re-visit the top 2 islands that were missed out last year.
Having already visited 8 Scottish islands so far on our May holiday (Isles of May, Mull, Iona, Rum, Eigg, Canna, Sanday, Skye), it was time to set sail for numbers 9 and 10 on our list - the Isles of Lewis and Harris which lie at the North end of the Western Isles/Outer Hebrides, and are to be found in the Atlantic Ocean off the West coast of Scotland.
This image was taken during our few days enjoying some of the places on Harris that we already know from previous visits, and a few new locations that we didn't have the chance to explore before.
The Outer Peristyle is a large garden south of the museum. At the Getty Villa.
The Getty Villa is an art museum located about 19 miles (31 km) west of downtown Los Angeles, California. The site is built in the style of an ancient Roman palace. It houses ancient Greek, Roman and Etruscan art and artifacts dating from 6,500 BC to 400 AD. Items from after 400 AD are housed in a companion museum, the Getty Center, elsewhere in Los Angeles. I visited the Getty Villa on June 20, 2015.
Our son and daughter-in-law chose this location for this year’s spring trip to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, putting us right on the ocean front beach. It was a great location right beside Jeanette’s Pier, and the weather was so sunny. There were some windy days that made the waves all that much better. Besides our family from Ohio, we had friends visiting from several Congregations neighboring ours, plus a family that drove from mid-Texas and another from Indiana. As usual, we took turns making meals and it was a great experience with everyone fellowshipping and working together peacefully. Yes, I had one conference call with World Headquarters I did not want to miss, but it was still total relaxation. I tried to go a whole day without touching a camera, but then I got the shakes, and I just had to grab a camera and start snapping again; when you are hooked, you are hooked. To see photos from our past visits to Nags Head see the set of photos in our Travel Collection called Nags Head Memoirs; they are all dated.
