this is the St Andrews castle.... nothing much left actually...
the other side of the gate wall....
scenery of st andrews by the sea... the twin tower lookalike is the leftover of the cathedral... biggest religious building ever built...

beautiful green and castle...
the gate or should i call it main entrance....?
the special thing was this tunnel.... which was dig by the ppl who wanted to atk the castle.. from below... it was really narrow...
they decided to seal it with a wall... damnit.!

the famous St Andrews Old Course...
its the Royal and Ancient Golf Club...
went in for a look... nah... dont dare... ppl working inside le...

best of all... its right beside the sea.... beautiful... the wind must be strong!
climbed some rocks and few tired ppl....
look back onto st andrews from the rock in the middle of the sea...
woooo.... great place to hang out and have a rest... seriously...

after the walk... decided to head for icecream!!! not bad not bad... just that the cookie dough not as syok as ben&jerry's....
this is the cathedral... too bad the sky turned dark already... well... the sun set at around 4.45 i think.... it looked like a key rite??

alright... after the trip.... few of us went for dinner and then to weihan's room.... to celebrate chit's happy 18 again... opened 2 bottles of red wine... and few of us downed it the night.... 1 was not bad but another 1 kinda suck.. lol... anyway... sorry weihan for messing up ur room and leaving some patches of spills on everywhere... lol...
