Fife Coastal Path

I had a really productive week.  I started my work placement at the University of Dundee's Art Collections, began writing my first essay in three years, and only watched a couple episodes of How I Met Your Mother.  I also planned to walk the coast to the next village, Crail, which is about 12 miles away.

We left around 10:00 on Saturday from St. Andrews.  Here we are at the start, nice and happy and totally unaware of what is ahead of us: 

 
The walk was absolutely stunning and lots of fun.  Unfortunately, we were held up by the tides and the Dunhill Classic Golf tournament (you can't walk past people who are putting, can you believe it?) and reached Crail a full 8 hours later!  We were tired and hungry, but quite pleased with our persistence.  
Here are some more views from the hike:
