The Adventure Begins


We met at Central Station and took the train to Ardrossan where we boarded the ferry. After spending time wandering about on deck we were greeted by the wonderful views of Arran and a porpoise (we think).

We took the ferry
'Twas a very good ferry
We saw a porpoise


We weren't abandoned by the bus driver, and after a short drive we arrived at Shore Lodge. At first we were surprised because we saw a small shed and thought that was where we were staying. As it turns out, the lodge was actually rather impressive and very nice, we found our rooms and settled in quickly.

Such a welcome sight
We're really glad that we're here
It's not just a shed

After chatting in the lounge, we brought out the cards while our enthusiastic chefs prepared dinner and had a riveting game of cheat, followed by some excellent charades.

 The tense game commenced
Alex picked up all the cards
Much banter was had

After much hard work, the dinner was prepared and we all sat down to eat a delicious meal of spaghetti bolognese followed by apple strudel. It's been a great day and we can't wait for tomorrow's activities.
