Our fourth day with the kids. We decided to split off today, so all the kids went to Edinburgh and Glasgow and we went to Prestwick to play golf.
They tried Scottish Porridge this morning with roasted apples. Sorry to say, bacon and eggs is their favorite, or absolutely anything with maple syrup.
The train ride was s highlight, but the city was spectacular. Castles, double decker buses, and of course a fabulous lunch. 
Who needs the grand parents anyway? We are so glad they are all having such fun together. Memories forever.
Brad and I played golf in several kinds of weather in one round with a great caddie who met us for a beer in a local pub after. He knew everyone in the Pub and introduced us around. Always fun talking politics with the locals
. The shell of the stone building in the background is the old church of St. Nicholas dating from 1200. Very interesting oceanfront Scottish town, and the course is the home of the British Open. How appropriate we were there as they are playing the Open this week in Northern Ireland
.We were supposed to have dinner at a Michelin restaurant tonight, but we both felt like a night at home. I went for a walk all through the grounds. 
. I feel so at home here. There is something about Scotland that just suits me.
A salad and quiche were the perfect end to the day.
