Day 116 - April 28, 2023 - Portree (Isle of Skye), Scotland, United Kingdom
Holland America Tour "Iconic Eilean Donan Castle & the West Highlands"
Eilean Donan Castle is Scotland's most-photographed castle and has graced the covers of calendars and postcards, and has been seen in several movies.
The castle and its walls were built in the 13th century as a defensive position against the Norse. In the 1700’s the castle was destroyed and left in
ruins for about 200 years. Restoration began in the early 1900’s to serve as a home. Today the castle looks like it would have in the 17th-18th centuries.
