On Friday September 20th Josh was able to tuck away a goal by playing a round of golf in the country where it is said that the game of golf originated.
Golf in Scotland was first recorded in the Scottish late Middle Ages, and the modern game of golf was first developed and established in the country.
After a nice early breakfast at our lodgings, Josh and Laura drove the very short distance to St. Michaels Golf Club. There was a one track bridge with limited sight to cross to get into the club where you were directed to honk so that you wouldn’t meet another vehicle head on.
Laura kept Josh company getting some great photos and adding thousands of steps to this 22,000+ step day!
Borrowed clubs and cart in tow, he set out on the course.
The owner of the lodge we were staying in gave Josh a bag of golf balls for his game.
Yippee for the one and only red squirrel that was spotted on our trip. Well done, Laura!
Greg and I enjoyed a leisurely morning in the lodge while Josh golfed. Josh and Laura returned before noon for our afternoon in St. Andrews, just a short distance from our lodgings. As you can see this was a rare cloudy and overcast day that we experienced on our Scotland travels.
Our Scotland Travel Journal serves to keep our memories alive and to remind us of God’s care and provision in our travels. Thank you for traveling along with us.

Hello,
It is great that your Josh was able to play gold in Scotland.
Pretty views of the golf course and the red squirrel.
Take care, have a great day!
Thank you, Eileen. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
…quite a breakfast, but where are the beans?
Tom, These Scots left the beans off!
So glad he was able to play golf. What a great experience for him.
Thank you, Debby. He was pleased.
You’re welcome.
I can’t tell you how happy I am that your experience in Scotland was a great one. Looks like you had a wonderful breakfast, and I see you had all my favorites on there. Super to see Josh and Laura enjoying the golf course. I love the ring the bell sign and the 9th hole o’er the knowe, and the 9th tee on that old marker. Scenery is stunning and even a squirrel saying hello. Happy Thanksgiving to you all Ellen.
Thank you, Denise. It was so good to travel in Scotland. Blessings!
If you like golf Scotland IS THE place to do it. 🙂
Karen, we couldn’t leave Scotland without Josh playing golf!
Sorry, I notice my spelling is wrong on my comment. I should spell check everything I type.
Have a great day!
