#trlt A4: I got stuck on the small Orkney island of Papa Westray for three days because of a combination of fog, Covid regulations, and it being a weekend. 4x1 miles in area, about 60 people live there.
Was fabulous :)

A4: Our Skye-Lewis (Harris) ferry was rerouted to go from Ullapool on the mainland. We drove 150 miles off the island and up the coast, to be told it was a 2am departure. We went to Inverness instead and never got to Lewis. Here are some Skye pics. @LindaPeters64 #TRLT

A4: I encountered incredibly rough seas on the ferry to Malaita Island in the Solomon Islands. Once past this hurdle, I was rewarded with the serene beauty of Langa Langa Lagoon. #TRLT

A4: Islands are beautiful, but can be a challenge to visit & stay. One island misadventure was when I took a friend from Toronto, to visit Salt Spring Island w/o realizing the return ferry ran from the other side of the Island. We had to hitch a ride as no bus was running.

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 A4: Love lemurs in Madagascar. But I almost got gored by a zebu, a humped cattle with horns, while innocently standing by my bicycle hoping to grab lunch. (My guide was oblivious.) A young boy, who was supposed to keep track of his cattle, intervened. #TRLT

A4: One place and I’m not sure it is classed as an island I had a mishap was when I went to the Amazon. The luggage went missing! #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 A4 : If we consider Venice an island, I slipped on the muddy side of the Grand Canal and nearly lost my phone in it during the acqua alta in November 2018. The atmosphere was so wet it took quite a long time before my clothes were dry. #TRLT

A4 #TRLT I don’t know what I did to flag Canada Customs, but the 3 times I’ve entered through Vancouver Island, twice I’ve been stopped for more extensive questioning. Worth the trip though.

A4- Traveling to #Boracay involves flying into Manailla which I can best describe as organized chaos

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @LindaPeters64 A4. I guess that it’s a toss up between a bike trip to Tsushima in a typhoon with no overnight reservations or getting severely sunburned in Okinawa..both very memorable island trips for positive reasons too. More positive as time goes on haha. No pics from those handy. 🤓 #TRLT

A4: After taking the ferry to Skye, we were on the bus to Portree. Along the narrow road, a truck carrying massive concrete pipes was coming the other direction. Both drivers slowed to a crawl, but it wasn't enough, & the concrete pipe edge shattered a couple of bus windows #TRLT

A4: The Channel Island of Alderney can be prone to fog. Our (very small) plane back to Southampton on the mainland was postponed for a day. Not a major disaster. [pics by @HMatthews67] @LindaPeters64 #TRLT

A4 During our time in #Panama, we were tasked with visiting some family properties to see if they could be an #AirBnB? One of them was on a remote island that we took a tiny fishing boat to get there! And busses before that. We made it and it was beautiful. #traveltuesday #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 A4: oh yes, some places are quite the journey. Not a misadventure, but going to the Caramoan Islands in the Philippines is planes to Manila, then a plane to Legazpi, then a 3-hour drive then a 1.5 hour or so ride in a boat ride to the island. Fun though; kind of. #TRLT

replying to @HeidiSiefkas @HeidiSiefkas @LindaPeters64 A4) While returning from Haleakala NP on the Hana Highway I got stuck in traffic because some of the local residents had set an abandoned pickup truck on fire so the fire department would come out to put it out & tow it away. #TRLT

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @LindaPeters64 A4. I sailed into Torshavn in the Faroe Islands a few years ago now, making the best of a weather window. On the way into harbour I injured my wrist, so my first stop ashore was the local hospital #TRLT
