Sunday 15th May
Woke up to cold and grey skies - but no rain. We set off to go where the car led us. The Forth road bridge over the Firth of Forth, which whilst being an impressive structure has an exceedingly rough road surface. We stopped at the bridge and walked back for a photo. We motored on choosing not to go to St. Andrews preferring the Highlands instead. The "satnav" was dysfunctional today, due to Croft Original (sherry). However we managed to find out way through Kinross and other small villages all the way up and into Tay Forest Park. Here we appeared to wander around in a square for some hours, due to a cycling event being held in the area, resulting in a number of road closures. We had a bite to eat at Queens View before deciding to head back via Tummel Bridge as the weather was closing in.
We were able to see the magnificent scenery we have heard so much about. Even saw some long haired cows!! And so our time in Scotland draws to a close. It woulod have been great to have had more time. Tomorrow we hand the car back and meet more rellies for coffee in Edinburgh.

Richard and Beth, It was great to have you at our wee gathering of the Stewarts. Haste ye back! Margaret and Dave.
We Are Thinking of you as you head home,
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you both in the palm of His hand.
traditional gaelic blessing
Ronnie Nancy & Jean
