Day 18 Mull to Glasgow airport

The harbour is completely socked in with fog this morning, hope the ferry is running.
Mailed the walking poles home in a tube at the very helpful tiny post office as there is no room in the suitcase. Couldn't leave them behind, they got me through the Camino, they're like old friends.
After another exhilarating bus ride through dense fog and rain (dear Lord, please bless and keep the bus driver!) I made it to the ferry at Craignure.
Oh my, in for another exhilarating ride on the Ember electric bus to Glasgow airport!
Decided to close my eyes and repeat my sacred word for a while rather than watch the road works and loch-edge passings (good thing my blood pressure is low to begin with), actually dozed off for a while.
Now ensconced in the Glasgow airport Holiday Inn, early flight tomorrow morning, the long haul back to Seattle and the rest of my life already in progress.
Found this quote:

"The geographical pilgrimage is the symbolic acting out of an inner journey. The inner journey is the interpolation of the meanings and signs of the outer pilgrimage. One can have one without the other. It is best to have both.”

~Thomas Merton

Travel is a form of pilgrimage for me- seeking, learning, experiencing more of the world.Read more
