Scilly 24 - Day 15

A "none" day!

We woke to Gale force winds and heavy rain. Excellent possibilities for Rare arrivals but not for getting off the Island!!!

A couple of hours of tense negotiation had us remaining in our accommodation "rent-free" which was obviously greatly appreciated.

We should have been on the last flight off but ALL flights for the day have been now been cancelled. We had a record 5 minute stay at the Airport to unload, get our flight time and get back in the Taxi!

Birding conditions were rather er... challenging, so nothing else to do than have a bonus early trip to the Atlantic and a long morning's Birding tomorrow before we leave at 1.50 (much calmer tomorrow).

So, another chance for a BIG finish. You never know...?
