In a storm is very atmospheric. The morning after the road had been washed away which gave us a glimpse of this beauty. Otherwise we’d have driven straight past. Onwards to the next adventure…
It may be a bit blowey and snowy but Skye is still stunning. Caught this rainbow over the north of the Island. A beautiful place to visit but the downside is at this time of the year it appears to be closed. Not a pub or cafe open. The storm is coming in strong today […]
