Friday Fences on the Isle of Skye, Scotland

 
This was taken on the west coast of the Isle of Skye, as my daughter and I were traveling to Dunvegan Castle.
 
 
Our stop was to photograph Dun Beag Broch. If you would like to read more about the historical site, click HERE.
 
 
Brochs were built in the last centuries BC and the first centuries AD. About 500 are to be found mainly across the north and west of Scotland.
 
 
Sheep were grazing.....
 
 
Another fence line.
 
 
The views seem to go on forever !

  2. That looks like some pretty rough, cold country. I visited Edinburgh Castle once and the bitter wind was blowing the whole time.

    1. Wonderful and strong are two good words to describe Scotland and the Scots. They were so friendly, especially on the Isle of Skye. And the food was exceptional. I even tried Haggis !!

  4. Haggis is surprisingly tasty - you just have to switch off your ugh switch. Hope you enjoyed Scotland and Skye - I used to visit regularly bc - before children for walking holidays and before the bridge was built.
