Have been planning for a trip to this island for a week. Finally we went on Sunday.
Start to board the train from Glasgow Central to Largs at 9.42am. Takes an hour journey.
Our train
Reach the small town Largs
After coming out from the Largs station, turn to left and walk straight to get to the ferry point.
Stop at Nardini's (the blue roof) for its famous ice-cream. It's just located beside the ferry point.
We go for the Large 99 cone
I choose Cookies&Cream while DH choose vanilla
Indulge myself in the creaminess. DH said mine taste better than his after trying mine.
Buy the ferry ticket here.
Here comes the ferry
Cloudy view of Largs
Emergency boat on the ferry
Many yachts sailing there
10 minutes on the ferry
Reach the island and look out for the bus 320 to Millport
Our bus ticket
We cycle around the coastal area
Go to this shop to rent a bicycle. They have many types of bicycles cater for different needs.
We rent a tandem bike (cos the last time I cycled was when I was 10 or 11 years old)
Single bicycle for an hour is £2.20
Tandem bicycle for an hour is £5.20
Add basket 20p
Helmet -forgot add how much cos I dun need it
Children's playground
We only touch 2 posts so DH said we only get 40% of luck from the islanders
Tomont End Monument
I found the Indian Rock!
Closer view
Wow, so 'cantik'
We found the Lion Rock!
We cycle for 2 hours
The infamous Crocodile Rock
Overlooking Millport
The smallest cathedral in Great Britain
Go to Deep Sea shop to takeaway the yummy fish and chips. It's located opposite the bus stop.
My fish and chips - recommended!
His chicken and chips
Bus sends us back to the ferry point again. Time to go home.
Our cycling certificates
Total damage done: (£8.90 return train ticket x 2 persons) + (£1.90 Nardini's ice-cream x 2 cones) + (£4.60 return ferry ticket x 2 persons) + (£3 return bus ticket x 2 persons) + (tandem bicycle rental £5.20 per hour x 2 + 0.20 bicycle basket) + (£5 fish and chips + £5 chicken and chips) = £57.40
Total gained: Happiness and fun experienced through cycling around the island with your partner is indefinite
*our butts start to hurt already*
