Tobermory is a colorful fishing port on the Island of Mull. There is a legend that a Spanish galleon that had entered Tobermory harbor to escape the English fleet, blew up and sank. There is a rumor that Clan MacLean was involved in the explosion.
Our walking trip was never dull
Of fine adventures, it was full
We drove down one-lane roads on Mull
To Tobermory
Seaside town with tern and gull
And a story.
Of the Armada, pride of Spain
Veterans of the Spanish Main
Storms and high winds were their bane
A man-o-war
Was blown up there by Clan MacLean
In days of yore.
