The bus St.Monans

This morning I woke up and went about my normal routine. But after I had finished breakfast and feeding the chickens, I went back to my room to pack. It was another totally wonderful spring day, so I opened up the windows and let the breeze come in as I changed my sheets. I packed my bag, shifting and re shifting the contents several times. The shirt folding trick that I learned from my fellow American WWOOFer, Mike, really helped me get all my stuff organized. Soon enough both my rolling back and backpack were ready to go. By this time, Diana had lunch ready and we ate. Afterwards, I went for a small walk around the farm, really trying to soak in its beauty and appreciate my last afternoon there. It was another quintessential spring day. So great.

Hugo!

At 3 o'clock Diana drove me to the Kirkcaldy bus station where I caught the X60 bus towards St.Andrews. It was only supposed to take about an hour, but because of a crash near Leven, the buses had to re arrange their routes. Instead of going along the coast, we ended up going way in land, along country roads past farm after farm. It was actually quite enjoyable. I really liked seeing all the old farm buildings and how they differed from where I just was. Some of the roads were so narrow, that the bus had to go up on the grass and the cars coming the other way had to back up and out of the way. It was quite entertaining and I applaud the bus driver.

Then finally it was the stop for St.Monans. I got off, grabbed my bag and went to the cottage. Once I found it, I unlocked the lock box and got they key. Then I was inside! Success. I made it there and into the cottage without any issues. Woo! I unpacked and walked up to the corner market to get a few more groceries. The selection wasn't great, but it was just enough for tonight. Then I went for a small walk around the town, just to take a few pictures and get the lay of the land. 

This cottage is totally amazing. It has everything one could need and it is about 100 steps away from the ocean. The whole village is looks great, just from my first look around. 

The Iceberg Cottage!

Look at these buildings!!

This little fishing village is so beautiful, I can't wait to explore it in the week to come!
