Those of you on Instagram probably saw my stories last week, covered in images of the Isle of Harris. We went away with my sister and her family for the week and stayed in a wee cottage called Seaside House on Luskentyre beach. The beaches are amazing and we were lucky enough to have one day where the weather was perfect. The sand was white and the sea was turquoise. The sun rose early and set late and the days seemed endless. On our visit we saw lots of wildlife which entertained the kids no end - jellyfish, dolphins, huge caterpillars but unfortunately no golden eagles x
