Today we arrived in Scotland and visited the pretty towns and villages along the ‘coastal golf road’.

First stop was North Berwick with it’s wonderful sandy beach and old volcano mounds!

The towns location became key in the Second World War as a look out point for German U boats in the North Sea.

Nowadays fishing, tourism and golfing are the reasons to visit and make it a great place to wander around.

There are great views out to the Forth and the imposing Bass Rock.

This area of the coast line is awash with links golf courses and we can came across a statue of one of the early devotees to the sport Ben Sayers.

Next stop along the coast was Gullane, with its fab sandy beach and great coffee shop, Goose on the Green.

We then ventured to Lingniddry and came across a great food stop serving the best fish & chips.

Our final stop along this section of the coast was Musselburgh and the adjoining fishing village of Fisherrow.

A little treat this afternoon was a visit to an ice cream heaven, S Luca on the high st.

We then departed to our final stop of the day Glasgow, where we are staying for a couple of days with one of my old friends James and his wife Catriona, who I first met in Australia some 30yrs ago.
