The weather was looking so good this morning so I decided to have a walk up Ben Tianavaig. It’s a little hill on the headland just south of Portree on the Isle of Skye. In case you’ve never been Skye is my most favourite place. At the start it was a little bit of a pain. There is a technique of driving on the little single-track roads in the Scottish Highlands and the biggest requirement is courtesy. Some visitors to this island don’t know how that works.

After that it got very good. I ended up chatting for a while to one of the residents of Camustianavaig. The weather stayed sunny and warm with just the tiniest bit of wind to keep the midges away. The view in every direction was awesome and I got several photos that I liked a lot.

Eventually I got back and when I was taking my boots off I met the Camustianavaig guy again. He had been picking potatoes and before I left he asked if I would like some since he had picked more than him and his family could use. 2 hours later I have just finished diner and it was fantastic :D
