Arrived at St Andres Holiday Park and immediately we both got a message from the gods saying don’t stay here. So we immediately bought some Internet at £6.00 per day! And changed some bookings so that we can leave in the morning. We were supposed to be here 5 nights. Got the bikes out for a cycle about the town a lovely little town.
May cycle again in the morning before we leave (if we are still alive). The shower block is the worst ever and we have been in one that you could not use the facilities at all. (Camping International de Fez). We hope it don’t rain see the reviews. We don’t know how we missed not looking we always do? Check BELOW
Into town again for a walkabout great to see some more acts the picture below was a favourite . It was very very busy today. While here we have seen some extraordinary things like:
A women tarting herself up on the bus ( and she needed it), a women curling her eye lashes in costa coffee, a women letting her child play on the bus steps while in motion ( he fell down them) ? And lots and lots of silly things ? maybe they were all part of the Fringe! The top ten Fringe jokes have left me a bit lost for words!!!!!!
Had a good walkabout today NO RAIN (Shhhh!) Lots of acts on so two laps of the main area then coffee and Lunch. Have to keep washing the van here as its dirty rain. This is a great place to do 3000 steps a day one set we went up their was 129 WOW.
Lovely blue sky today the secret is to take an umbrella with you and it don’t rain. Lots of new acts for us to see today. The picture below shows where not to put your marketing material?
Run day for us along towards Cramond Island then back to the site. Up into Edinburgh for some more of the Fringe its good to see all the different acts each day. We have had our first taste of extreme weather this afternoon resulting in 2 very wet people.
Cycle this morning to North Berwick for Bacon Butties and coffee at The Buttercup Cafe (what a lovely name). Well worth a visit. Back to campsite for a long walk along the beach North. Lunch then a few jobs around the van and another walk late evening on the beach again.
Tide out this morning so a run along the beach towards North Berwick turned at the signs for Nude Bathing Ahead it’s a really hot day and one could easily have a stroke? Wrong word (Heart Attack).
Got the bikes out and cycled into North Berwick for lunch then up passed the Law (not the police) the Hill to Tantallon Castle then back to the site for a thunder storm. Bumped into a fellow traveller that we met at Tynemouth again.
Took the Bikes in to have a service at Berwick Cycles 2 New chains break blocks for both bikes and a rear wheel straighten on Darian’s Bike (Will have to lose some weight). Cycle round the town and walk around the whole town while waiting for the bikes. Our usual walk on Spittal beach in the evening. (why are we always so tired?)
3 August 2019 North Berwick
Good journey up just an hours drive so topped up with Shopping. Got the bikes out for the 3 mile cycle into North Berwick to have a look at The Fringe by the Sea. Its not easy to spot so we now have a programme but not much of interest for us.
