Spent a looong time last night and this morning trying to find accomodation! It is a bank holiday weekend (today is Friday) and every hostel from the Isle of Skye to Glasgow is booked out! Only place we could find was the hostel here in Armadale on the Isle of Skye! Once again – not as far a drive as we’d hoped. Saw Eilean Donan Castle (spelling that wrong i am sure!) on the way which was very pretty, then took an incredibly narrow windy insane little road to the Kylerhea Otter Sanctuary. The road was so bad that a few times we went over such a steep little hill i couldn’t actually see anything besides sky so couldn’t see which way the road was going at the crest!!! Needless to say took it verrrrry slowly. Since this is kind of what i was expecting all the highlands roads to be like i guess i should be grateful :D Passing is fun cos every 50m or so there is a slightly wider (very slightly) bit of road so you have to stop to let the other car pass. Or if you have just gone around a bend and didn’t see each other then someone has to back up (and not fall off the cliff) to the previous passing place! Gimme aussie country roads anyday!!Anyway pic here is from end of this road so you can help us decide if it was worth it or not ;)
