We weren’t the last people on the bus today, which was a nice change. Off the bus went to St Andrews , our first stop for the day. We were dropped off at the cathedral and walked down to the dock. There was a beach with actual gold sand! As it was just a short stop we strolled through the university and golfing town, had a look in the golfing museum shop then got back onto the bus to head towards our lunch stop.
We got to Pitlochry and walked to have lunch at the pub. I had a delicious Chicken Tikka Masala, which was a lot better than I’d thought. Justine was a little worried about me having curry because she was sitting next to me on the bus, but needn’t have worried. We then headed to the Bell
It was back on the bus again and towards the MacDonald Aviemore Ski Resort which is where we were staying the night. Myself and some others headed off to the swimming pool where we’d spotted a giant waterslide. Unfortunately it was closed, so we contented ourselves with the pool, spa, sauna and steam room. It was a surreal feeling looking at the snow outside while standing in the singlet and shorts, seeing as I didn’t anticipate needing bathers on a winter tour of the UK.
Our dinner that night was the best included meal we’d had; we got to choose our own meals rather than just being presented with the same as everyone else. I had Chinese Spring Rolls, a fancy Meat Pie and meringue for dessert, while Justine had the apple crumble; it was absolutely divine. We headed for a night in, relaxing and watching the TV while seeing the end of the Matrix Revolutions. I think there’s a reason I haven’t watched the sequels to those films.
