We boarded the 11:44 train at Derby travelling to
Edinburgh arriving at 15:10 or so. Luckily the next train was laving
from a nearby platform and this was the last leg of the journey
leaving at 15:41 for Milngavie, which stopped at a long list of
stations before arriving at Milngavie at about 18:10.
Karen had booked all the places we would be
staying at during the walk and this evening we were staying at a
nearby bunkhouse. First we were able to get some cash from a
convenient ATM, then we walked a short distance to find ourselves at
a bungalow at 8, Cross Burn Avenue.
The bunkhouse was
actually a separate building at the end of the garden which was
unusual but had everything you would expect for a bunkhouse with two
bunk beds, heating, electric light and access to a small kitchen and
bathroom through the back door of the bungalow for which there was a
key in the bunkhouse.
There were two girls
already there when we arrived who were on a cycling tour.
After we had dropped
our stuff off and made the beds, we walked back to the town centre to
have an evening meal in the Cross Keys pub.
