Sister McBrides travles to Anstruther and St. Andrews

Sister McBride said they were off to go to Anstruther and St. Andrews. Here is a little bit of where they were going to visit. It looks like a  charming and fun fishing village to visit.




Anstruther was originally founded as a fishing village, Anstruther is home to the Scottish Fisheries Museum. Its main industry is now tourism, although other small scale manufacturing and service industries continue.[citation needed] Recreational vessels are now moored in the harbour, and a golf course is situated near the town. Anstruther Pleasure Cruises operate sightseeing/wildlife cruises from the harbour to the Isle of May, the UK's primary puffin location, on board the vessel the May Princess from April to October. An abundance of other wildlife, including seal colonies, also inhabit the island. The Waid Academy, the local state comprehensive school, is a focus of the community and through its secondary role as a community centre. Anstruther has a parish church at its center that is perched on a small hill. This structure incorporates a tower/spire feature rare to Britain, but common to the area.

This is St. Andrews. Looks like another fun historical place to visit. Known world wide as the "home of golf" Looks like a lot of fun to be had!

 




 

 I wonder what they ended up doing and the places they saw. Maybe we will get some pictures next week of her adventures.
