Dan goes to Scotland

I recently returned from Scotland where I joined some friends for a 6 day golfing vacation. Generally regarded as the home of golf, Scotland is rich in links-style golf courses. We stayed in a cottage overlooking the Firth of Forth on the North Sea

in the small village of Pittenweem in the Kingdom of Fife.

From there, we traveled to several (7 total) scenic golf courses ... like the Castle Course in the lowlands 
and Pitlochry in the Scottish Highlands.

We also went to the Scottish Open at Royal Aberdeen Golf Club Best of all, we were able to play the historic and world famous courses of Carnoustie

and The Old Course at St Andrews ... the Home of Golf.


I spent a fair amount of time doing this ...

and this ...

but felt lucky to be able to do it. 

Mega thanks to my friends for being such good travel companions and to the wonderful people of Scotland for being such gracious hosts. 

Cheers.
