Hello,
Today we had lots of driving. We drove about 90 minutes to the home of golf (St. Andrews). We wandered through the cathedral ruins. We then wandered through the city for awhile. The beach was lovely. We then went for lunch 90 minutes away at a place I can't recall the name of. There was an optional tour of a whisky distillery. Some of us who didn't want to go in there wandered around together after lunch. I did some shopping and got a fleece jacket as well as some tartan plaidish scarves. We then had a two hour drive to a place outside of Inverness where we are spending the night before going to the nearby Loch Ness Lake to see the Loch Ness monster. Here are my shout outs for this blog:
Aunty Margaret-I think mum and dad met at the start of their tour and not at Land Windermere but, I really don't know. I, also, don't think their tour was on Contiki as this tour I am on is the only Contiki tour that does UK and Ireland like my parents did and it isn't a camping one like theirs was. A note about our tour guide-He tells quite dirty and sexual jokes. In Canada he'd be fired for sure!
Nissa-No, it wasn't me who got married. If you read the blog properly you would have seen that the people getting "married" were actually already married-hence not me! I saw a model of Peter Rabbit. The hens and guy party were together for a bit and then they separated. We came together at the end. I will tell you more about it on Skype one day as all details are not all appropriate for here.
Random quote from the bus driver at this moment as he talks on his cell in the lobby area-"They are all looking at me! I can't help thinking my fly is open."

Hi
It sounds like you're very busy, Zoe. Terry and I have talked about visiting England and Ireland. How are you finding the tour? Is it moving too fast for you, have there been places you've been that you would have liked to stay a little longer? I must say, sitting here watching T.V, waiting for Terry to come home for supper, I am extremely jealous! Have fun!
