Perth to Dundee

Once in Perth, we spent at least 30 minutes riding around admiring the beautiful streets, many of the core ones fully pedestrianized. I bought a SIM card for my phone, and Lee sat in the sun on one of the benches with lovely artwork all around. 
As we left Perth on bike route 77 we were so happy we had the ebikes. Steep uphill and then continuing gradual uphill for about 3km. 
These are the signs we’ve been following. 



The beautiful views made the climb worthwhile. 



We can see why the English wanted Scotland. 
We stopped for tea at a little pub by the path and enjoyed our egg butty that was prepared by our B&B hosts. 
On to Dundee on an undulating path which fell to sea level. The approach to Dundee was windy but oh so beautiful, with a very low tide   



The wind was so fierce we decided not to cross the bridge, but instead to call it a day. We stopped in at the cafĂ© at the Discovery museum and we ordered mango peach sorbet. When asked what we’d like to drink I said “champagne but since we were on bikes we’d stick with water”. And this is what we were served!
