Callanish - 2
Posted: Saturday, 17 December 2005 |
Callanish is not just world famous for the Stone Circle, but also for its associated connotations. Every June, people flock to the Stones at the time of the Solstice, although I don't see the point. Archeologists have formulated the opinion that the Callanish Stones were linked to the moon, not the sun. Nonetheless, I won't begrudge anyone a good soaking at dawn, as happened this year on June 21st.
On one of the pictures, shown on the link on the first entry on Callanish, mention is made of Callanish Air. Although it shows the Callanish Stones, I have found evidence of airport runways already in place in the village. See the picture below.

I see the green channel running by the fence between the two runways.Excellent customs facilities! Beats Stornoway hands down.

I have been in Lewis since late 2004 and am observing life on this fascinating island from an outsider's perspective. I look out at the lighthouse every day - as it looks out over the island and the sea.
