Scotland – 2016

This trip was very well organized by myself giving suggestions and a friend handling logistics.

Our first trip to Scotland, the home of Golf. Most of our group of 10 had not been overseas and none of us had been to Scotland. The itinerary below was adjusted a handful of time by a couple of us for several months. The first order of business on any Scotland trip is to secure your Old Course tee time, there are a few ways to do this. You can stay at a hotel that has guaranteed tee times such as the Old Course Hotel, you can enter the advance lottery or you can go down to the first tee really early morning and wait in the “queue” for hopefully a slot to open up later in the day.

This what our trip looked like after arrival from the West Coast of the US via Toronto to Edinburgh
