A walk in the woods, and a train journey to Inverkeithing and back!

With the Christmas holidays all but over, we have enjoyed the last few days by doing things locally, and not so locally.
Firstly, we went for a walk in the woods around our estate on a lovely, crisp morning.

Sandy likes to collect sticks on his travels....

Then, yesterday, Saturday 7th Jan, we decided to take a train ride across the Forth Rail Bridge, as none of us had done it before- (well, perhaps I have, but if so, it was a very long time ago, so it was definitely time to have another trip!)- so we caught a GNER train directly from Dunbar to Inverkeithing in Fife.
There, we had a look around, had refreshments in a nice wee cafe, then headed back to the station to catch a Scotrail train back to Edinburgh Waverley. From there, we transferred to a Virgin train for the return to Dunbar.

Why? Well, Sandy is very much into trains again, so it was all to keep him amused, and to be fair, he had a brilliant time. So, too, did the rest of us!

Now, we had never been on a Scotrail train before this one!



A happy lad on the Scotrail train.



Passing Rosyth...Can you spot the Superfast ferry? (that one's for dad, who's daft on ferries!)




Just before boarding the Virgin Voyager train from Edinburgh, back to Sunny Dunny!



No, it's not cold on the Virgin train, it's just that Olivia fancies a shot of Sandy's Scooby Doo hat!


End of a great trip, and one very happy boy!



Back home, and Olivia doesn't want to give up that hat!!
