"The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls".

Wow this is absolutely gorgeous !
Are these places sanctuaries, or do they attract tourism during the high season ?
Hi Beaver,
thanks for your comment. I'm sitting at my pc at work just now, but it is nice to know someone is reading my blog on the other side of the world!
The places I mentioned in the blog are pretty much deserted all the year round. The beach attracts surfers and a few families, but only for a few weeks of the year. The Mull of Kintyre is 8 miles down a single-track road so most people don't go there.
A lot of Scotland is like that - you'd be surprised, although maybe not, as I guess a lot of Canada is pretty deserted too. I'm lucky that my work takes me to these places (or at least the roads that go past them) and I often get them to myself.
Best wishes
Stuart
