Isle of Skye III

While the wind is blowing really hard outside I decided to make my last post about our Isle of Skye Trip. On the last day, which was also the day when we went back to Aberdeen, we decided to drive a bit over the island and then go back to the main land to visit Eilean Donan Castle. The weather was slightly better than the other day so that we could take a few more nice pictures of this impressive landscape but see yourself:

Those two pictures above show the view out of the dining room in the hostel - nice, isn't it?

That's a good example for how the people live on the Isle - often very far away from any kind of civilization. But I love the red houses between the trees. 

Made me feel like being in the wild west :)!

That was the last picture of the Isle of Skye. The next ones gonna be at the main land again. It was a nice weekend there, I really enjoyed the landscape, the people and even the rain made it kind of special.

The Secret Chamber - Steffi and I were alowed to enter because one guide let us in :).

Bye, Bye, it was a nice weekend!

See ya, loves!

Isle of Skye II

I'm a really bad blog mommy but lately I haven't been able to manage my time efficiently. Unfortunately this also affected my blogging time. But now I'm back and I hope I will manage my time better in the future.

Today I will show a bunch of photos from our second day at the Isle of Skye. It was such a rainy day that most of them look really grey and sad but nevertheless the nature and landscape of this island is incredible wonderful as you will hopefully see. It was also kind of funny because Steffi and I became so wet that we had to change our trousers (the only one we had with us) to tights so that they could dry. We did it in the back of the car and laughed a lot about the stylish look afterwards :). Now I hope you have fun watching the pictures we took!!

Most of the time we drove on very small paths but I had fun driving there when it was my time to be the chauffeur :).

 

Due to the rain we decided to visit a Whisky Distillery. It was very interesting although I don't like Whisky.

Everywhere on the Island you find cliffs and waterfalls. 

 

A typical picture of Skye: Sheep on the road...

... or even Highland cattle...

... and sometimes also hens ;).

Because of the clouds those mountains look like volcanos but they aren't.

 

 

Exploring cliffs at the very end of the little Isle. 

Despite the rain it was a very impressive day on the Isle of Skye and it's really worth too see.

See you later, loves!!

Better late than never ;)

It's been a while since we were at the Isle of Skye, a wonderful Scottish Island. We rented a car at the airport and drove through the Cairngorms National Park to Skye where we lived in a very good hostel at the Isle's "Capital" Portree. It was amazing!!! As you can imagine we took a lot of photos of that trip so that I will divide the posts about it. Today I show you a few from our journey. Have fun!

Nice landscape and lots of sheep - määäh!

 

That was already in the National Park.

Loch Laggan.

The Laggan Dam.

Our tiny, cute and absolutely comfortable and fun to drive car <3!

 

 

There were so many Lochs that I don't remember which one that was, sorry!

Hope you had fun watching this!!

See ya, loves!
