@ Inverness之穹蒼島

I have heard the small island for years and finally I could visit it. Skye is a popular spot for visitors in Inverness and therefore applying earlier will be better. The package tour cost me 30 pounds, and it included Loch Ness, 2 hours on Skye, more than 1 hour at Eilean Castle and McDonald Ruined Castle and Gaelic Life Museum. Castle Eilean need to pay by myself and I think the castle is worthy for 3.8 pounds

 

Skye is like a barren island because you can’t expect too much. There are only pine trees; unknown flowers and grass cover the entire barren field. The biggest residents here are sheep. No matter where you go, you could sheep everywhere, including the seashore could seen sheep’s droppings.  But the landscape of the island is really fantastic and the wind is howling through ears. It was surprising to heard people chatting in Gaelic. Gaelic represents mysterious language and the bus driver told us the residents try their best to preserve the dying language. In future, the school here will use Gaelic to teach students.

 

Our bus driver is a nice and charming guy. He told us a lot of stories and it included the Celts sorrow history, Celts myths and Scottish miserable wars. But I have to admit that I did not pay attention because I was attracted by the scenery.
