Thirza Pidgeon’s 1937 World Tour – 3 July: Weekend tour to Dunkeld and Pitlochry

Saturday, 3 July 1937

Rather dull, after dinner at Bo’ness, Jim, Elsie & wee Jim took car for a weekend tour. Left here at 2.30 over the Kincardine Bridge to Perth. Had a rotten afternoon tea here, then off to Dunkeld where we stayed the night. Had tea, bed & breakfast, for 22/-. Left at 10 next day, Sunday. After tea, went for a drive to Pitlochry, a pretty place. Started to rain so came back to Mrs Cameron to spend the night. Sat yarning in the lounge room until about 10, quite light, then to bed.
