Friday Islay Picture #383 - Laphroaig Distillery
OK, the fun is over. Of course the WhiskyLand™ theme park to be built on Islay was an April Fools joke. Most of you spotted it immediately, but some were getting a bit worried. Anyway, what could be better than a fake theme park than a picture of a real Islay distillery as a Friday Islay picture now? Here you go, a beautiful view of Laphroaig in the June evening sun:
As usual I will post a larger version (larger as in twice as big) on the Islay Pictures photoblog on Saturday morning. To go back to the topic of April Fools, for those who'd like to see the ones from previous years on this blog, here's a list:
