id=\"caption-attachment-10827\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Broughty Ferry lifeboat station<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I mean, there&#8217;s only so much you can do on a rainy day. Our original plan was to spend part of today with nearby family, but that fell through so we were left at odds as to what to do. We&#8217;d done the planes, trains and automobiles thing so decided to add bus to our modes of transport used and hopped one to where we could purchase a golf hat for the guy who administers hubby&#8217;s cancer treatments (after all, you have to keep him sweet so he&#8217;s good to you). I had only ever used a &#8216;transit&#8217; bus once in Scotland and that was back in 1993 to go from the Guild Street station in Aberdeen out to the airport at Dyce. For that trip, I had to have the exact change.<\/p>\n<p>This trip, shortly after we sat down, a &#8216;clippie&#8217; was there to collect our fare. Exact fare wasn&#8217;t needed but no doubt appreciated. It cost \u00a34.30 each way for both of us, which was very reasonable, we thought.<\/p>\n<p>Our shopping trip completed, we caught the next bus back to Broughty Ferry. On the way, the rain started again and at one point, it teemed so hard and the windows steamed so much that we could hardly see. At least the driver could and he was the one who mattered.<\/p>\n<p>When we returned to Broughty Ferry, the rain had stopped but it was still quite overcast. We got off the bus at the Post Office Bar stop and walked back in the direction of the railway station. I thought I had seen a bank with a cashpoint but I hadn&#8217;t. Looking down Gray Street, I spied the familiar Clydesdale Bank logo so we went there so we could get some cash. Of course, after we stopped here we saw all kinds of banks along Brook Street.<\/p>\n<p>I had picked up a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dundeeheritagewalk.com\/walks-broughty-ferry\" target=\"_blank\">City Centre Walk<\/a> brochure earlier at the museum so took a good look at it when we went back to our room. While we were there, it cleared up and the sun came back out. We picked up the cameras and out we went again &#8211; this time to capture images of some of the locations in the brochure.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10835\"
