    Latest Scottish Adventure #11

    Looking north from the Dundee Law towards the Sidlaw Hills.



    Looking south towards Fife and in the direction of St Andrews.



    The shimmering lights over the River Tay as illuminated by the road bridge.



    A view of central Dundee from outside the hotel, the Law can be seen in the background.



    The Discovery. It was a dismal and grey day so the light wasn't brilliant.



    The stern of Discovery.



    Penguin statues at Discovery Point. It looks as if their heads are bowed in silent memorial of Captain Scott and his men. It should be noted though that Scott did not sail on his last ill-fated voyage in this ship but in one called the Terra Nova.



    Well that's the last shot from Scotland for now. Mum and I headed south to spend a couple of nights in York but even there I was kilted!
