    Lovely video, Bute is such a gorgeous wee island, everywhere you turn the scenery is stunning. Hotel looks good too, I'll keep that in mind for my next jaunt over there!

    Shawna, that was such a lovely video! Thanks for taking the time to fill it. The ferry ride and hotel were great! I love how you capture the dogs you see along the way on film.

    Loved the video. Bute is a wonderful Island. Next time try visit St Blane's chapel at the South of the island, then go to Kingarth Hotel for fantastic food. Stunning beach at Kilchattan Bay. Really is a stunning place.

    7:14, 8:32 Thank you for the reminder. I need to slow down, pause and enjoy/appreciate the architecture of these buildings and essential infrastructure. 9:15 to 11:40 Am enjoying the ferry experience. 14:40 What beautiful faces and smiles! I can easily spend a week on the Isle of Bute. Thank you for this trip.
