Driving on the Isle of Skye

Wow.  Talk about a new challenge to driving on the left side of the road.  Add to that driving on one lane roads with two directions of traffic, sheep in the middle of the road, steep cliff drop offs into the ocean, and rain!  The views were spectacular, but it took us an hour to drive 20 miles.  The road went from good two lane with some shoulder, to a narrow track just wide enough for one car.  There were "Passing Places" every 200 yds or so, alternately on one side of the road or the other.  Cars were pretty polite about pulling over when they saw others coming ahead.  We only had to back up once to make room for someone that we didn't see because of the sharp curve in the road.
