Isle of Skye: Home of The Sleepy Little Town March 4, 2010
Posted by tiffany in : Isle of Skye , trackbackWe arrived in the Isle of Skye today after a pleasant bus ride (there we four people on the bus including me and Chris and we were given an excellent view of the mountains).
The town (village actually) that we are staying in is called Kyleakin and it is so small that: the grocery store, the Post Office, and the gift shoppe are one building. You blink and it’s gone, but it’s not alone; there are many more along the route the bus took to get us there.
The up side is that the locals are very willing to help you. Everyone was happy to see outsiders come in. For the record, we are the only guests in the
hostel for the night. Needless to say, they are very willing to help and give discounts (I think they’re just happy to see new faces and new business). Even a cat that we dubbed “George Boots” greeted us in the road!
There are amazing views of the mountains that we will probably do some exploring of later this week. There is a bike rental in the village across t
he bridge to the main land which we will probably take advantage of.
