Gald you like the wheels, I do too 
.
As the trip progressed they got more and more dirty with brake dust etc, so don't really look their best in the pics. Being gloss black doesn't help either. Like anything black they look fantastic when polished up 8)
Tuesday - Portree (Skye) to Tarbert (Isle of Harris) 192 miles
It's a damp morning as we head north from Portree to the ferry at Uig Bay
Awaiting the 9am ferry
Here it comes

Off we go.......
It takes about 90 mins to cross the stretch of sea called The Little Minch, and get to Harris
Approaching Tarbert
Leaving the ferry to spend the day touring Harris & Lewis

We went to Stornoway (the capital of Lewis) for lunch, but to be honest there was little to see. Decided to head to the most northerly tip and the Butt of Lewis
Heading across Lewis to the northern coast
Lighthouse at the Butt of Lewis
Butt of Lewis
More lovely beaches
Heading back south to Harris
On to south Harris
It was getting dark by the time we got back to the B&B, so after a quick change we had a short drive to Tarbert for dinner and to watch the Utd game in the bar. Another busy day. In the end it was Harris
, Lewis :thumbsdown:

More of a relaxing day today. Saying that, we had to skip breakfast and be at the ferry terminal at 06:50
Heading back to Skye as the sun rises
Bridge to Scapay Island
Entering Uig Bay
Heading west toward Dunvegan
Loch Dunvegan
Loch Carov
Loch Harport
Cuillin Hills (they're not hills, they are real mountians)

Wow great road trip as usual. My dad lived in Stornoway for a while, I learnt to drive there in a Transit van :rofl:
Did you go to the mini-Stonehenge at Callanish? Not much else to see I suppose, it's very bleak.

These are the ones at Calanais
We didn't stop as we found Lewis to be quite dull really, much like Orkney. No regrets about going tho, sometimes you've just got to check these places out, and see for yourself.
Bet it's a great place to learn to drive, especially in a Tranny
