    Greetings Travelers

    When I woke up this morning we had some beautiful sunshine on a clear blue sky day which is pretty rare for Febraruy here on the east coast of Scotland.

    Yesterday we had heavy snowfall , today brilliant sunshine and blue skies, thats Scottish weather for you , we can have 4 seasons in one day.

    So with it being a nice day for walking my Father and I decided to go for a drive along the coast to an area we haven't been to since before the pandemic.

    There is a lovely little farm that has been here at the loch side in Kinghorn since the 16th century.

    The area is known as Craigencalt Farm.

    Its the perfect place for a walk on days like today, let me take you on a virtual stroll around the lake ,old mill and farmhouse.

    There has been a mill in this area since the 16th century , some of these buildings are really old. I wonder if they are haunted?

    The area has been populated for more than 400 years ,I guess the land must have many stories to tell...

    The café has a wonderful atmosphere, i guess its one of my favourite places to eat locally. They have a lovely cosy fireplace and a friendly dog.

    The last time I was here they didnt have pizza on the menu.Im a sucker for a good pizza so I decide to see what the pizza is like here.First a pot of tea while we wait for the pizza.

    I wanted to try the Garlic Chicken but they didn't have any so I went for double pepperoni.

    DSCF3531.JPG

    The pizza was good but not great ,Ill give it 7/10 stars.

    The café also sells handcrafted items made by local merchants...

    As we walk back to the car I notice this tree house/summer house building behind the old farmhouse, I would LOVE to investigate this...very cool spot for a summerhouse...

    As we wander past the storage building I'm surprized to see lobster pots but then I remember we are not all that far from the sea...
