St Andrews, Scotland is not just the world’s best known and oldest golf club. As you will see from our photos, it is where Will met Kate while attending the University of St Andrews and it is the home of Scotland’s largest cathedral and the castle which served as a palace for bishops and archbishops since c. 1200.
When our dear friends, Anne and Stuart, began planning their trip to visit us in London, playing golf at St. Andrews was at the top of Stuart’s list. Together we traveled to Edinburgh, then Dundee, and on to St. Andrews to fulfill Stuart’s dream of playing a round of golf at the "home of golf", The Royal and Ancient Golf Club, founded in 1754. In typical British fashion, the day was grey with showers and a few bright spells. It was also chilly for the middle of May but with all that said, Anne and I managed to entertain ourselves by exploring the town of St. Andrews and the ruins of both the castle and the cathedral while Stuart and Rick enjoyed their 18 holes on the Jubilee Course.

Oh, My!!! Jeff (as I'm sure you can guess) would sell his soul to play a round of golf at St. Andrews. It's always been a dream of his...someday!
