Blairgowrie - Day 3

We walked from the house today, a circular walk mainly along the River Ericht.

First we walked into town and across the bridge.


We then passed a lot of polytunnels filled with fruit bushes.



Further on we were closer to the river bank, and came upon loads of trees chewed by beavers. We didn't see any beavers though.


The river had obviously been much higher recently, as there were bits where it had burst its banks.


We crossed the river at Kitty Swanson's Bridge, then headed back up the other side. A lot of the time we were walking on top of the flood defences.

There were more polytunnels, this time with strawberry plants.


Once we got back to the house we decided to drive into town for a walk round the shops.

Later we got a Chinese takeaway from Taste of China. We had a mixed starter then the main courses were duck with orange sauce and chicken and ham fried rice, it was pretty good.
