Crazy weather; rain, hail, and strong winds gusting to 90km an hours. Maybe not so wise to cross the mountains in weather such as this, but we were lucky. The rain stopped every time we wanted to stop somewhere and the wind didn't blow us off the mountain.
Did I mention that this is the 8th natural wonder in the world! Some serious beautiful scenery.
The sheet of rain is barreling towards us, you can actually see it in the picture below. Lots of pictures were drive-bys.
THIS was a statue of a horse...
Around the bend and there they were. She almost left bambi behind when she was getting away. We stopped and watched the baby scramble away.
windy and cold.
This woman insisted on taking a picture of us together. Nice!
One of many pretty, colourful houses. Yay for being individuals and not building the same house as your neighbours.
Can anyone explain why people wrap their garbage in a blanket? At least we think it is garbage underneath the blanket. Unless they have a 'take a dead body to the curb' day

scenic.

Crappy sign. Must have been created by a non-Scot.

Here is the ferry we didn't get on. We got there thinking we'll buy a ticket the evening before departure not knowing that the truckers hog all of the tickets and it's not easy to get on the ferry...we ended up changing our plans and drove to Halifax instead.
By the way, the ferry trip was canceled that night due to high winds.
