We had a relaxing start to the day because the first ferry from Lochranza doesn't leave until 09:30 on a Sunday. We followed a couple going up the road from Claonaig to Tarbert and ended up sitting next to them at the café for lunch. All the cafés were busy, the sun was out and people were making the most of it.
After shopping at the coop we took the coast road B8024, the wind started to die down which would have been against us at this point. It became overcast but stayed dry until second lunch at Clackbreck. The rain started as we were sitting on the beach, the temperature dropped suddenly so we packed up and took in the three mile climb to 193m in waterproofs. From the summit it was all down hill to Aygyle Backpackers at Inverneill. It's a very well equipped bunkhouse, great kitchen, good to get out of the rain. Chilli for dinner and an electric organ to play for entertainment, lovely place.
