Familiarisation

We survived the minus 7 temperatures of last night with the help of layers and a radiator. Leisurely start to the day before we headed off for a 6 mile walk in and around the village of Markinch. That's the village that the campsite is next to.

The village boasts 2 decent sized convenience stores a train station various bus routes and at least 3 pubs. One of them with my name on it.

It also has parks a country park and rolling countryside .

The walk took us through woods

Through old graveyards

On the top of the hills we could see the sea in one direction and snow capped mountains in the other.

Before coming back through the adjoining country park.

The rain set in early evening. It's going to be unsettled for the foreseeable. Snow is on the cards for the next 3 days.

We will take the opportunity to have a look around the local area either by car or public transport.
