    Brings back memories of my trip there as a student so many years ago when I spent a weekend with the Iona Community!

    Fun way to get around. Nice photos, too. I must go sometime, I think I have some ancestors buried there.

    I've gone to Iona several times. It's a spiritual home for me. I'm always grateful that the earth has such places. Hope to go back soon.
