  Monday 8 July 2002

the weather has turned really bad with driving rain and a high wind. We leave the bikes at the house and use the morning for a long walk to the other end of the island, and come back around noon for the bikes and get on our way for the next stop, Busta House Hotel. Luckily, it's only about 6 kms, for the wind and rain is straight against us, so we arrive at this nice hotel in a very wet condition. Here are lounges and a library and a bar where the residents can while away time, which we proceed to do, finishing up with the 4-course dinner in the stylish dining-room. It really is a very nice old building with an interesting history.
