Day 1822 part 2 Isle of Skye, Portree boat trip, Old Man of Store, Fairy Pools and sunset

We had the most amazing day on Skye yesterday.

I slept like a log…. No wonder after such an epic day.

We had a lazy morning and left our beautiful Airbnb and set off for Portree…. There were many oohs and ahhhhs and moments of wonder along the way. Of course we stopped several times for photo opperchancities….. my gran used to say that!!! šŸ˜†šŸ˜†šŸ˜† (actually maybe she never, sometimes I give her credit for lots of words and then wonder if she did)šŸ˜†

We took a 2 hour boat trip with Stardust from Portree.

Portree

Back on dry land!!

We drove out from Portree up to the Old Man of Storr. For the purposes of doubt the tall monolith (check me) is the Old Man of Storr.

We decided to take the very well appointed path up to it. It’s a hike. Said 40 minutes but it took us about an hour as we stopped for so many photos.

The views were out of this world…. Then there were selfies!!

This looked like a diamond shaped lake!

I should say that this is the Pinnacle.

We drove from there to the Fairy Pools… now this has changed a lot since I was last here. A new path has been laid and the car park is massive compared to what it was. A real sign that they have had to cater for the amount of tourists they get.

We drove chasing the sunset but never really got it.

Helen took this amazing photo from a passing place!

A truly exceptional day where memories were made.

Stay safe everyone ā˜€ļøā˜€ļøā˜€ļø
