Crail & Anstruther, Scotland

On our trip to St. Andrews last year, we took a day trip to the seaside towns of Crail and Anstruther.  So accessible and rich in history, I would absolutely recommend hopping on the bus in St. Andrews and taking the short journey.

In Anstruther, you must stop at the Anstruther Fish Bar.  SO good.  Pro tip – get your fish and chips to go and eat on the benches near the harbor.

In putting this post together, I was so bummed to find out that the Dreel Tavern closed.  It was such a great little spot to enjoy a beer in their garden.

Such a beautiful place…

Can’t get enough of all the fab doors! And I LOVE that green and blue are so prominent.

Flights. Booked.

On Saturday we booked our flights for a September trip that will be one to remember.  We’re going back to South Carolina for our 2nd annual (golf) trip with friends.  And from there heading to Amsterdam, St. Andrews and London.  The planner in me is already plotting out some must dos.
