Living on Skye, specially in a busy season, we have to make a real effort to drop everything & go out to explore this magical place where we've chosen to live. You're lovely pics have inspired me to find the time to get out there to places we haven't been for years, so thank you ;) See you for longer next time!

In 1991 I was camped in a field on the edge of the loch close to the castle and for a few minutes, when the sun was setting, the castle looked as if it was made of gold.<br /><br />I can see the crofter's house in one of your pictures!Lynhttp://www.rosiepink.typepad.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4743022844398713733.post-33901060562462752192014-04-19T11:00:10.120-07:002014-04-19T11:00:10.120-07:00Thanks Pili.

Glad your memory has been jogged. We passed the Talisker distillery every day to get to the hostel. Didn't go in though.Aileen Clarke Craftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16295960962493554673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4743022844398713733.post-65406594815676979892014-04-19T10:30:01.600-07:002014-04-19T10:30:01.600-07:00Yes Dotty!

We discovered the gallery and the bakery for the first time this year- loved their lunch breads and I kept saying "OO I'd love to work in this gallery". Funnily I think I recognise your friend from the Broadford Co op- wish I'd known we had textiles in common:) Thanks for sharing.xxDottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16894868033082449495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4743022844398713733.post-58788064309050625882014-04-19T04:29:42.397-07:002014-04-19T04:29:42.397-07:00Wow, everything looks so absolutely stunning and b...Wow, everything looks so absolutely stunning and beautiful!!
