Isle of Skye

September 17, 1996

We landed at the Glasgow airport and, a bit jet-lagged, got to our rental car, a red VW station wagon. After buckling in, we proceeded to drive to our first destination, the town of Portree. It took some getting used to, driving on the opposite side of the road, as well as the roads themselves being extremely narrow in places. Soon enough we were travelling over the recently-completed Skye Bridge, which traverses Loch Alsh and links Skye with the mainland. We eventually made it to the Bosville Hotel in time to join the rest of the Clan for dinner.

We had a spot of good weather while we were there, so we were able to explore Portree a bit. The area is notorious for heavy rain, but we were spared that, and we wandered the streets, taking in the water views and breathing the clean sea air.
