SAID:
Well,
two weeks of doing the Blog once a week is OVER! We have decided that
it doesn't make life any easier, in fact, for me it is harder to
recall everything for the whole week & trying to put up the
photos en mass is really painful. So it is back to the old way!
Our
first real look at Skye today, & we headed off to south-west-ish area
to Dunvegan Castle & Neist Point Lighthouse. We saw neither really. The
castle was from a distance & the lighthouse not at all. The
walk to the lighthouse was a fair way & there wasn't any parking
around, with loads of other people there before us.
We
did see plenty of great scenery, & the sun did try for us, till
about lunch time when we returned to Crab Cottage.

| A modern version of the crofting house; there is "chicken wire" across the roof with heavy stones attached to hooks to hold the wire & the thatch down in strong winds! |
HE SAID:
Our Bed and Breakfast on Skye is remarkably well set up. It was a very pleasant surprise when we arrived. They had thought of just about everything.
Skye is a scenic, farming island and has livestock on many of the roads, and subsequently lots of manure on the roads too. I just thought I'd point it out.
