A little while ago I took a short trip to St Andrews. I was in need of a small adventure.

Everywhere I went the St Andrews coat of arms seemed to guide my path. So I clearly had to stop and take note. However, the reality was I knew I was heading straight for the cathedral.

As I walked by Deans Court I realised that the cathedral was closed for some needed repair and maintenance

So I walked towards the castle which was also closed for repairs. I clearly was out of luck! I had to admire both sites from their perimeter and along the coast.

As always, I found a seat with a view!

The leisurely walk along the coast took me through the harbour and the old town.

It was a short visit but a visit that still made the trip worthwhile.
