It was time for one of our daily walks again. I like the walks and the wonderful landscape

It is steep and when it is raining you have to be more careful where you put your feets

Skye is the largest and best known of the Inner Hebridean isles. Known in Gaelic as Eilean a' Cheň (The Misty Isle)

 

This is so beautiful. I have seen so many films and videos with scenes from Scotland, scenes just like this.
And when you see it for real... Wow

I don't mind the rain, I think it gives the mountains more beauty with the mist coming down from the top

Isle of Skye
The only time during this trip
it was raining

Off to the mainland again

I have never been able to drink whisky before, I have tried and failed. It starts with the smell and then it just gets worse.

However, after a few hours on the wrong roads and ending up in places we didn't intend to from the beginning, we finally reached Talisker.

In Talisker we bought a bottle of their finest and I had a taste. I was waiting for that familiar feeling to come, but it didn't.

 The smell of this wonderful whisky was so different from the ones I have tried before. It smells wonderful and it is a very strong and good taste. I would say it "kick" and spread warmth in your whole body.

Now my home is never without a bottle of Talisker.
