Yesterday we stayed at a hotel that had no internet, no shower (only a bath), no telephone, and only 5 stations on the t.v. Apparently Skye is still very primitive, and they didn't even get television until 1970! It was literally like being transported back into time! The hotel was not that nice...mom and I had a horrible night sleep. We could hear the people above us walking around all night! Every time someone moved we would hear "creeeek."
Yesterday we woke up and drove all the way to the Isle of Skye. It was a really long drive. Lunch was horrible, so the bus driver took us to a little village and everyone loaded up on panini's, ice cream , smoothies, and bread. If its one thing that Britain sucks at....its their food. It is so bland, the sauces are all wrong, and its the same thing to eat day after day. We can't wait to go home and have a good meal. Its not like we are starving either! Our new diet consist of bread, ice cream, and cookies in order to keep full. THey don't have any veggies here besides potatoes, and salad is a foreign language to most of the places we go. We are dying for a good ceaser salad!
Then we had a bus tour and we saw where Flora MacDonald's grave was. It was so windy out that we were literally being blown away. We basically just looked around at the atmosphere at all day and tok pictures. We think its a lot like Canada.
We took a walk after dinner. It was really pretty because we stayed right on a harbor. It never got dark all night, so the whole group took a walk at 10 at night...it was so bright out. We had to close the curtain to sleep at night, and it was still extremely bright out!
Tomorrow we head back to England!
P.S. We learned that people from other countries like to travel to America to eat, because we have "SUCH BIG PORTIONS."
