Dundee - Day 1

We dropped Oscar off at the kennels and drove up to Dundee in the car, getting there just before 6pm. We checked in to the Best Western Queens Hotel, on Nethergate at the west side of the city centre.

After dropping off our stuff we went out for a wander. We had a pint at the Bank Bar in Union Street, then walked down to the waterfront.

The new V&A museum is there, as is Discovery Point where the ship that took Captain Scott and Ernest Shackleton to the Antarctic is based.




We went further along the waterfront to the Gidi Grill Caribbean restaurant, where we'd booked a table for dinner.

We had grilled lamb, spiced macaroni cheese with jerk chicken, tempura vegetables and skinny fries. It was all pretty good, our criticism was that it all arrived at our table very quickly, so we didn't really have time to relax (and indicated that most of it wasn't freshly cooked). No real complaints though.

We walked back through the city centre to the hotel, stopping at the Market Bar for a drink on the way.
