St. Andrews - The Old Course

Our trip to St. Andrews provided not only the chance to visit the castle and cathedral but, for some, a stop at the 18th green and the 1st tee of The Old Course, which is one of 7 golf courses at St Andrews. The Old Course is the one that is the site of The Open every five years. Having watched all opens, both British and US, for several years it was wonderful to feel the "breeze" that is so prevalent at the coast and to see what a links course looks like up close and personal. Some of us also visited the Golf Museum, which is very well done. For golfers and golf observers (for me Tiger must be in the field) this is certainly a "trip to Mecca".
