Thirty P to Pee

10/2 The biggest event today was that we walked up Serpentine Hill to find the family home - Canada Cottage.  Apart from a tough climb, it was exciting to find the cottage at the end of a short road with a view of the bay from the back of the cottage.

In the evening, our host Sandy, entertained us with his abilities to play many different instruments.  He gave Dee her first guitar lesson (of sorts). 
Our lovely visit to the Isle of Bute came to an end and we caught the ferry, then the train from Weymss Bay back to Glasgow where after much worry, I was able to find and reclaim my wayward boots. It cost an £18.50 taxi ride but I had a great driver and got a history lesson about Glasgow along the way. From Glasgow, we caught a train to Perth, and then changed trains in Perth to Inverness.  Something we learned in the various train stations led to the title of this post.  It costs you £.30 (thirty P, or Pence) to Pee in a train station. 

BTW - Inverness is wonderful.  The River Ness flows through town and is a beautiful walk.  More from here later.  Love - Becky & Dee
