Isle of Skye

Today we experienced torrential rain (we were warned about Scotland and rain) so we took a drive on the Isle of Sky to the Talisker Whisky distillery. The drinking and driving tolerance here is 0, so I drove and Bas had a whisky.

Last night was a comedy of errors. Our hotel had a gas leak in the kitchen so it was closed for meals. The receptionist drove us 15 mins to their sister hotel for food and dropped us off. Just as we got in the door (and our driver had left) we were told their chef had closed up shop and gone home sick. After an hour or so, and many phone calls, the displaced chef (from the gas leak kitchen) drove to pick us up and took us 17 mins back the other way to a rather stuffy restaurant (somewhere royalty would eat). Though very formal and rich, it was food and we were hungry. It’s quite remote where we stayed so dining options were limited.Leia mais
