Just a few sheep taking their own sweet time. Good thing dh couldn't get up to speed on these single track roads. Taken through the front windshield, as it was drizzling now and the wind was starting to bite.

Yep, that's a car coming toward us off in the distance. Near the cliffs. On the single track road. We found the nearest layby and just parked there until they passed.

Dh's least favorite sign on the island; I found it interesting they are called "passing places" here. When we were on Skye six years ago, they were called "laybys" and that was how we kept referring to them. Maybe that term confused the tourists too much . . .
