| | | Kailzie Gardens & Spirit of Scotland
A sunny day today for Ann's stroke group summer trip to Kailzie Gradens, near Peebles, and first shots of my new Spirit of scotland 8 yard 13oz. 
We travelled there on a modern Mercedes coach. 
Peacock 
Ann on one of the lawns. 
Beside the fountain in new kilt. 
One of the ponds. 
Ann in the walled garden. 
A fine view towards the north east, looking to the hills across the Tweed. 
Kilt & Rhododendron. 
Courtyard coffee shop.

Looks great with that t-shirt! You're rivaling the peacock for brilliance…

Beautiful pics. The scenery is beautiful and the kilt looks very nice. Did Ann enjoy herself?

| | Yes, KCW, she thoroughly enjoyed the coach trip, touring the gardens and a very good lunch. The gardens are only about 30 miles from home so not too long a coach trip for a group of disabled people. Normally I have to drive everywhere and take Ann's electric mobility scooter along in our van but Kailzie Gardens have a fleet of wheelchairs available for free use by visitors who have limited mobility so I was happy to do some wheelchair pushing in return for being able to relax on the coach ride.

That looks like a wonderful outing for you and Ann - thanks for the photos of the beautiful gardens.

A couple of those photos of Ann look like she was cut-n-pasted into a postcard. How, um, picturesque!
