Trip to Dunfermline
So yesterday, I planned a hiking trip to Dunfermline in Fife. We took the train, which was only £3.85 for a roundtrip ticket. The three of us brought study material so we could do a wee bit of studying while we were there. The train ride took only 30 min or so and when we got there, it was raining lightly and was freezing cold outside. We ventured over to the park and followed a footpath that lead to a bridge. This bridge overlooked a stream and a small waterfall and was absolutely beautiful. The rocks and trees were covered with bright green moss and it felt as if you had stepped into a fairy tale. The footpath went down towards this stream and there was even a wooden lookout tower that was covered in moss and looked out over the little glen. We continued on the path towards the abbey and there was a beautiful stone bridge that was also covered in moss. We walked over the bridge and up to the abbey and took some pictures of the abbey. After we saw the abbey, we walked over to a little cafe that the man in the museum told us to go to. Yeah, I forgot to mention that we went to a little museum before the cafe. It was just a small house with some pictures and guides. We ate lunch at this cafe and afterwards headed to a different cafe to get some studying in. We left about 2 hours later. All in all, it was a beautiful hike and I took many pictures! I'll be uploading them after I post this, so remember to check them out via the photo link on the right-hand side of the blog.

I just checked out some of your photos...what's the name of your travel chicks? I may have to steal this idea for the girls...
Hmmm, I was was thinking of putting a patent on this idea... Well, they are 'Travel Chick' versions of Kristen and I. So no other names in particular.
