Isle of Skye - Day Two

The plan for Wednesday was to drive to the north end of the island. 

The day starts the way we ended yesterday, with a view from a wide spot in the road.


The Isle of Skye has various rock formations with names.  I couldn't keep track of them, so I just took photos.


Sheep.


We were on our way to Kilt Rock, which is a series of basalt cliffs with a waterfall coming out of the top of one of them. We pulled over at a sign, but, it wasn't the place we were looking for.  It was still lovely.



And this is the view in the other direction.




We stopped at the Flora McDonald memorial, and Cathie found Alexander McQueen's grave marker.  I stood in the wind next to the car.  This is the Atlantic at the north tip of the island.


And this is the view the other way.


From here it was back to the hotel for tea.
