Our penultimate day on Skye, and although the weather was still good, gone were the bright blue skies, yet this made for good walking weather to visit the Fairy Pools - somewhere we had long wanted to see... The walk is a good mile, downhill steeply at the start, and with the new bridges not too difficult in crossing the water - previously it was 2 sets of stepping stones. Keeping with the Tolkienesque feel of parts of the island - hardly surprising given that it was a major inspiration for Lord of the Rings - I had in mind to use this track from Enya for the video, which I think works, but does make the video a little longer than I would like..
