Today we head to the Isle of Skye, Scotland Highlands were very beautiful with lovely mountain views and countryside. As it was the middle of winter it was quite cold and snowing in some parts! We visited the Eileen Donan Castle, the previous building dates from the early 20th century but was rebuilt between 1912 and 1932.
Our tour leader then made us climb a massive mountain (it was more like a hill but felt like a mountain while climbing it), I realised how terribly unfit I am when I almost died at the top!! The views from the top were fantastic though!

We toured around for the rest of the day stopping at various sites to take photos and we saw an awful lot of sheep with different colours painted on them before heading to our hostel for dinner and another night of drinking at Saucy Mary's bar!
