We had another very active day in Fraserburgh. In the am, we enjoyed the MacDuff Marine Aquarium so I had to include a photo of my favorite...the cuttle fish. It seems as though he is a distant cousin to the octopus. Can you see the resemblance?
Already it was time for lunch so we headed over to Banff And Buchan College, where they have the Dept. of Hospitality and Catering. The students practice their skills as wait staff, maitre de, chef, etc within their in-house Wallace Restaurant. The food was delicious and came with an outstanding presentation. Many Rotarians from the Fraserburgh Club came to join us for lunch.
Afterwards, Ann(Heather's host) and John(Levi's host) drove us over to Hackley Bay between Colliston and Newburgh for some free time on the beach. This beach is pristine, as it is within the confines of a nature reserve. We practically had it to ourselves once we made the the trek down the cliff and on to the beautiful white sand. The hike was well-worth the effort...yup, we are having as much fun as it looks, even though the water is cccccold!
Fri am we are on the move again. We had a great time visiting Fraserburgh area and its Rotarians, as well as Debbie (Kylee's host), who visited New York as a previous GSE team member. It is difficult to move on, but we are certain that history will repeat itself in providing us with wonderful Rotary hosts, friends and great experiences. Karen
It sounds like you guys are having a great time. How is the Scotch there? Does it go down smooth?
ReplyDeleteHi, Ken. Heather here! Just saw where you had sent the comment so I'm not sure how we missed it earlier! If you ask Levi and I, yes, the whisky goes down very smooth! If you ask Karen - not so much! I think Scott is enjoying it as well, but I don't know about Kylee and Caitlin!
