Lerwick-Aberdeen ferry deck plan
Not sure if the posted photo resolution will be great enough to zoom in and read this? We were in cabin 409. There were two vehicle decks below. Geo: 57.1475, -2.09539
The ferry docked in Aberdeen at 7am, after a comfortable 12hr crossing. We were temporarily flummoxed by a lack of Internet connection (the ferry wi-fi was rubbish) and no downloaded Google maps to use. We (Robyn) got talking to a gent while we were looking at the Aberdeen Castle Gate. This fellow was a local who had an opinion on everything, and barely drew breath between sentences. He was entertaining and his stories sounded true. He did deliver on wi-fi though, and gave us the password for a local private network that got us up and running again.
So we visited Aberdeen's Trump International Golf Course that apparently had heating under the resorts roads so they remained passable in icy weather. £215 green fees, but there were plenty of people playing. Then we drove south to Carnoustie Golf Club and looked at the hallowed links course. Then on to Falkirk to see The Kelpies sculpture and the Falkirk Wheel.
Got home about 6pm after a packed few days of driving and sightseeing.
