We also got a little nervous facing the check ins at the airport with our huge load of luggage and equipement. But our fears did not become reality as Ryanair handled that very easy, while other airlines are going to ban surfboard and windsurfboard transportation completely.
Three hours later we landed with our mointain of equipment in Glasgow, but with that we only had completed step one of the journey. Step two was the drive through the – untypically sunny – Scotish highlands along Loch Lomond to the small harbour town Oban, from where we were supposed to take the ferry. On that ferry they had reserved us a place, but just before our departure we couldn´t find our reservation.
At the end we managed to find a dot on the ferry at dawn after we had discussed the tricky booking system with the ferry staff at the local pub.
