Today we traveled the twisty narrow roads to the westernmost point on Skye - Neist Point, where there is a lighthouse you cannot see unless you're willing to hike for 20 minutes or so down from the sea-cliffs and then up over an ocean-front mountain. We were (willing) and we did (hike it), and it provided us with arguably the best scenery we've had in all of Scotland.
The pictures do not do the place justice, believe me, but they give you a sense of it anyway. You should click on the pics (especially #2) to zoom in and see the scope of it compared to humans...
Fantastic!
En route we had a nice fly-over of a Golden Eagle, and then soon after we got a nice look at a White-tailed Eagle (called "Sea Eagle" informally, and my new bird 35 for the trip).
Enjoy...
