Skye to Gairloch

Highlands holiday - Day 5.

Today I moved on from Skye to Gailoch, it can be the most beautiful drive. Down through Skye and then over the bridge. Up past Loch Carron and over the 2400 ft Beallach na Ba pass and into Applecross, followed by a coastal adventure to Torridon, then finally up past Loch Maree to Gairloch........
.......buy today was the worst day of the holiday, it threw it down non-stop so I stuck to the A roads all the way.

I made a short detour down Torridon in the hope that the weather would break....it didn't.
