Isle of Skye It was rainy again in Portree. I met an expatriate Japanese family at breakfast in the B&B. They suffered from floods in Oxford, lost many memorable photos and had come here for their summer holidays. They had to move to another house when they came back to Oxford. I had no plans on this rainy day and I learned they had come here as tour members and that the bus would come to pick them up soon. So, I asked the bus driver to take me with them. I was lucky, the bus driver accepted me as a hitch-hiker and didn't charge me a penny!
