On Tuesday 26th February 2019, the ELPCSG Walking Group tackled the 8.5 mile walk from Aberlady to Dirleton, passing various world-famous golf courses on the way. No Beast from the East this year but a warm sunny beautiful day more like late Spring than February. Thanks to Gordon and Iain for leading us so effectively. And thanks to the Castle Inn in Dirleton for staying open late for us to enjoy lunch. A wonderful day of exercise and camaraderie, all in a stunning landscape. Thanks to Gordon McLelland and Alasdair Ferguson for the photgraphs. Click the photos below to enlarge.
