The Old Man of Storr

Our sightseeing today took us past the Old Man of Storr at the end of the Trotternis Ridge.  This spectacular pillar of rock would, in my younger hays have me wanting to head off up there to have a look.  The car park was full and it is suggested that it will be a 1hr 45 minutes walk without stopping.  Who wants to dash up there and come down immediately.  A full car park, age, lack of time and the fact Kanyl couldn't even consider it was enough to put me off.  The numbers on the track would have been the final "nail in the coffin".

Doing some shopping in Portree I was attracted down to the harbour looking for shots.  If the reception allows (we have been having trouble) the extra will show the houses along the harbour side.   A number of seaside towns in the highlands, notably Tobermory, have houses painted many colours as does Portree.
