A Gentle Walk in Eskdalemuir

This was another short walk to help Tom get back to fitness after his operation. He is progressing well and we will soon up the mileage to about 5 miles but fairly easy ones. This weeks walk started at The Hub in Eskdalemuir and we took the cycle track from there to Samye Ling and back which is a round trip of about 3.5 miles. 
Tom reckons it is lucky to be photographed under this archway as a few years ago we took a photo here and later that afternoon he shot his lowest score round the Langholm Golf Course.
The Monastery was very busy today with loads of visitors about and on a nice day it is a lovely peaceful place to visit. 
They have recently repainted most of the statues and the place is looking very nice
This Indian Motor Bike was parked there and Peter was itching to have a go. It was in immaculate condition and probably quite old, as is Peter (Old not Immaculate). We finished of with a nice lunch in the hub.
