Aberdeen - day 5
The weather forecast was not good - 30mile an hour winds from the south and we were heading south, so they were in our faces all day! We set off from Rattray and headed in land and south, over a few small hills. Average speed about 5mph! We headed for Cruden Bay, hoping for a cafe but unfortunately there wasn't anything. Instead we bought some rowies and hot chocolate from the shoppie down by the harbour in Port Errol and sat outside, sheltering from the wind and rain. We peddled onwards to Newburgh, still no cafe, but at least the sun came out as we sat on a bench outside another shop for sandwiches. The wind was still mammothly strong and we battled to Aberdeen to the SYHA, 50miles.

Yikes! Sounding tough ... but great! Well done so far - can't wait to see the pictures. Keep eating those rowies :)
Dad says you should try calling in at the golf clubs. They usually welcome visitors and serve good food. Lots of the courses in Scotland are public - including Carnoustie.
