The crossing to Iona, you could be in Greece up here, the colour of the sea, white sands... beautiful place.
You can feel the spiritual vibe the closer you get to the Abbey.
The small island is in the Inner Hebrides, off the west coast of Scotland.
The 'Birthplace of Christianity' - where it all began back in the early 500's with Saint Columba's work & followers.

The first recorded sighting of Nessie was in 565 by St. Columba. Columba allegedly saved a man from the monster by making the sign of the cross and telling Nessie to leave him and go back.
