Izgubljeni nekje na severu sveta, Škotska

Ko smo v zalivu Elgol na otoku Skye tik pred odhodom na kratko pokramljali s sosedi, družino iz Anglije, s katerimi smo si delili noč na parkirišču ob lokalnem pristanišču, so nam rekli, da so konci okrog Clachtoll-a najlepši, kar jih Škotska premore. Divji, s skoraj karibskimi plažami in najboljšimi pitami daleč naokrog. Vreme naj bi bilo sicer najslabše, kar Škotska premore a to nas vseeno ni odvrnilo od poti. In res. Po vozakanju po precej obupnih skoraj da že stezicah, smo se na koncu le nekako primajali do našega cilja. In naše ugotovitve so precej podobne angleškim. Pite iz tiste modre kolibe so naravnost fantastične. Kot tudi tista sladka karamela rezina, ki jo sanjam še danes. 🙂 Vreme je bilo naravnost obupno in težko bi bilo sploh slabše. Deževalo je non stop, prav tako je non stop pihal tudi orkanski veter. In plaže? Ja fajn so. In verjetno še precej bolj, ko je vreme vsaj malo bolj človeku prijazno. 🙂 Drugače pa ja – pokrajina je skoraj nezemeljska.

When we were sleeping the last night on the island of Skye in Elgol Bay, we met a family from England that advised us, that we have to visit also Clachtoll area. According to them its one of the best area in whole Scotland – wild, with Caribbean like beaches and the best Scottish pies in the country. And even though the weather there is the worst you can imagine, that didn’t  bothered us of visiting it. And whats our impression? Pies from that Blue shack in Clachtoll are truly amazing – as well as that sweet caramel  cake. 🙂 The weather was horrible and I can not imagine that it can get even  worse. And the beach? Yes they are spectacular. Probably even more if you are lucky and catch some sun. 🙂  But it was well worth it and we would not hesitate to visit the area again.
