Tuesday we went to St. Andrews. Sadly, Angus is in Japan. W e did see many of the landmarks that regularly appear in his posts. The Old Course, the Abbey, some of the squares at the University, his favorite bakery, the closed newsagents. The town is charming. We took a train from Edinburgh to get there and back. The closest train station to St Andrews is about 5 miles out of town, there is bus service about every ten minutes to and from the the town. The train ride was amazing. The route goes across the Firth of Forth, The train goes across the big red bridge, a masterpiece of engineering - I have long wanted to see it.
This photo is from about 25 years ago, Stephen and Sweet Bears hair has changed color, Travel has a few battle scars, all still look stunning. This was the site of the essential pea-ness comment. That is a story for another day.
Where should we go this week? Explore the world around you,
What should we do this week? Find joy in the everyday.
When should we be kind to others? All of the time, every chance you get. Make the world a better place, by being the best person you can be.
Who should we be kind to? You never know who needs it most, who your kind word might help the most.
Why should you be kind? What goes around, comes around, and even if it does not, being kind costs nothing.
Who benefits most when we are kind? You do.
When will I return to normal posting and commenting? Next week.
The main part is at least you're still having a good time

ReplyDeleteThe train ride to Glasgow was delightful. The hotel is a predictable and comfortable Hampton. We had a delightful lunch, time for an afternoon nap.
DeleteSounds like you are enjoying the area.
ReplyDeleteVery much so. Glasgow has made a great first impression.

ReplyDeleteI always try to be kind and helpful. I have this printed and taped to my mirror:
THINK before you speak:
T is it true?
H is it helpful?
I is it inspiring?
N is it necessary?
K is it Kind?
Lots and lots of photos, not having a working phone, the photos are all in my Nikon
