Girl In The Pretty Dress

This is the last of the posts from my American Road Trip. I'm sad not to have an excuse to relive the memories but I'm excited to plan some fresh content! For the final day of our trip we decided to unwind on Sullivan's Island, and do one of my favourite activities: Brunch! (A much bigger deal in America - but thankfully it's catching on over here.) Charleston is a cyclists city and thankfully our hotel included bicycle hire in our resort fee (most places do this but it's still a good idea to check). So we borrowed a couple and headed out to the coast. We passed by the picturesque Shem Creek en the way and were drawn back here for a last meal before heading for the airport.

Two months ago Cali and I took some time out and spent it with family in the Scottish Borders. We stayed in this house , which is what I would call 'Unusual' and 'Unique'. It's extremely spacious which makes it excellent value for money - but (I'll be honest) not quite to my taste. The house is not too far from Kelso which is a perfect town for a touristy day out shopping for knick-knacks. It's also only an hour and a half from the coast. We visited Eyemouth - which has a small but perfectly formed beach and a great coastal walk (past the smugglers bay!) If you do get chance to visit Eyemouth, I would also recommend this lovely pub . But the main draw of this house is that it's very much off the beaten track and the best of the Scottish Borders is right outside your front door - waiting to be explored. On another note... this post is, as usual, a little late. I've been getting into bad blogging habits over the past year and you may have not...
