We were on the road by 10AM, on our way to the Isle of Skye for our castle adventures. It's typically a 5 hour trip because you're driving from the SE of Scotland, the very bitter end of Scotland's NW coast. We were planning on it taking about 6-9 hours because we're traveling with little ones. In reality, it took us a solid 12 hours before we arrived at our cottage. It was a long but spectacular drive through Scotland. We made it to one of Scotland's most famous castles/monuments, Eilean Donan, before the sun set (featured in several movies). We spent close to an hour exploring, playing, running, and snapping pictures of the castle.
We drove and drove and drove in the dark night, long after the children had fallen asleep, and watched as the road continued to narrow, and more sheep occupied the winding road to our cottage. When we finally arrived, we all had a good laugh at where I'd be sleeping (a closet), and flopped into bed.
