Day 34 - Wednesday 13th May


Traquair to West Linton - Woke up to a beautiful bright and frosty morning. Set off in good time to say hello to the "Bear Gates" at Traquair House and stunning tree lined view of the House and friendly Bears! The weather really made today, visibility could not have been better and everything appeared bright and fresh (including Malcolm and I). Peebles was a lovely Borders town and an encounter with a town optician (to replace Malcolms favourite glasses case) was nice too. He didn't have a case but gave Malcolm new glasses for no charge - "I think you're mad, have them and sod off" he said to us. Thank you, eccentric a tad, but kind too.

Jo and Dave met us and provided a lovely lunch enjoyed on the grass
