Dunvegan with fog

We left the last site, with low cloud still shrouding the mountain tops, for Portree the 'capital' of Skye. It's a small but busy little harbour town made even more so by a HAL cruise ship moored in the nearby loch. We parked amongst the busses while we looked round and found ourselves blocked in for about 20mins until the driver returned with his butties.
After trying unsuccessfully to book a site I decided to go to Dunvegan where there is small site near the castle. The last few miles the visibility  was less than 50yd in dense fog. Parked in the village car park by the prawn and mussel van. After browsing the shops and cafes we went to the Kinloch Campsite, up a very steep ramp, to secure one of the last 3 pitches for 2 or maybe 3 nights. Nice site with basic but clean facilities, free WiFi but no mobile phone signal! How technology is changing. Should be a nice view of the loch if the sun comes out tomorrow, but the overnight forecast is FOG.
