You know, I went to the Isle of Skye in Scotland after staying In the City of Glasgow for a few months. And, believe it or not, I decided to drive from Glasgow to Isle of Skye on a rented Peugeot in order to appreciate the grandeur of the Grampian Mountains. Can you imagine how great that fells as I drove along the roads that twist below the towering munroes? But the problem is, as I drove along, I have to stop now and then to catch a glimpse of it and take a few snaps. Anyway, I traveled on A82, passed by Loch Lomond, Fort William and turned into A87 and headed towards Glenelg, south of Kyle of Lochalsh. Finally I am reaching and I took the privately operated car ferry to arrive on the Isle of Skye at Kylerhea. Or, if you prefer, you can take the Isle of Skye Bridge, which is a road bridge that spans over Loch Alsh. The Isle of Skye Bridge connects the mainland with the island forming part of A87. The Isle of Skye Bridge is a short bridge of about 500m.

Glasgow Cathedral. Glasgow Cathedral was the fist building I visited when I start my exploration of the City of Glasgow. This was the first time I have seen a cathedral.

In addition, it has a unique choir screen with exceptional stained glass. No doubt about it, it has impressed me.

However, it was a couple called Mr. and Mrs. Mackey whom gave a detailed descriptions of what they have saw that initiated a modern craze for the ‘Nessie’ stories. Their spectacular descriptions which were reported in the Inverness Courier on May 2, 1933 reads as follows: “The creature disported itself, rolling and plunging for fully a minute, its body resembling that of a whale, and the water cascading and churning like a simmering cauldron.”
