Across the Tay Road Bridge

We had a great time in Dundee last Sunday. We went up to visit David and Chanel, and took them out for lunch to Avery and co. which was a very pleasant, modern restaurant near the centre of town. Chanel then suggested a walk across the Tay Road Bridge and back. This turned out to be the highlight of the day. In all the years that we have been visiting Dundee we have never walked across the bridge, and it was tremendous. The weather was cold but dry and the bridge was surprisingly long. A low mist swept in and wreathed around the bridge as we reached the other side, which was spectacular. We went down and skimmed stones from the beach at Newport on Tay before heading back across the bridge; by now the sun was very low and glinting golden on the windows of Dundee. The whole walk took us a couple of hours and we thoroughly enjoyed it, and well as the friendly chat and company of David and Chanel.
