A boat passes under the Forth Road Bridge.
A closer view reveals it name. We have a piper and now we have a drummer! 
Except that the piper has started pulling his pipes apart...

At last! He's piping! Think he was surprised to see some one disembark in a kilt though!
Tartan ID anyone?
We were bussed from the ship to the terminal. I loved the poster on the bus!
Note the guy wearing the Braveheart tartan!
And as we left the terminal by coach we passed this ruined castle.

Nice pics. The piper is wearing a beautiful outfit! but his sporran lows pretty low to me, is it normal to wear it like that.

I thought it a little low myself Galician but not horrendously so. The fact that he is not wearing a belt due to his waistcoat might also add to that conclusion.
But as long as he felt comfortable in all the important areas that's the main thing.

Passing over the Forth Road Bridge you could see the Rail Bridge which is undergoing an extensive repaint and has all that Lego looking stuff on it.
Passing the village of South Queensferry.
Interesting brick sculptures near Livingstone.

And so we come to the last photos of the trip!
On the way back we stopped off at Moffat for lunch at the Woollen Mill there. I was able to pop in and visit my friend Adam who was at work in one of the town pubs which was nice.
Church opposite the Woollen Mill.
Entrance - note the symbol of the Moffat Ram (see March Burns Supper series).
And a wider view. The Mill carries a wide selection of Scottish and Tartan products.
The End.

What a great Travelogue!!! Wonderful photos and descriptions. I don't ever expect to be able to take that trip, so I appreciate your taking the time to share it with us. It looked most enjoyable. I'm sure you and your mother really had a great time.
