Day ninety two - Troon to Brodick

 31st May.

A Cloudier and misty morning but it soon cleared to bright sunshine and hot.

Looking back to Troon 
Followed the coast, sometimes on the beach, to Irvine where there is an interesting bridge.

Unfortunately it seems to be derilict at the moment although there are plans to resurrect it and more in the old harbour. The whole section on the far side rolls out to meet the other bit to complete the footbridge.
Steam tug at the Heritage Center 
There is a marine heritage center there but I didn't have the time or the inclination to go in so continued on an inland loop around the river and railway.
Until meeting the coast again at Saltcoats where there is a long promenade.
That leads to Ardrossan and the ferry terminal to Arran.
It arrived in Brodick, a typical tourist ferry port and I walked out to the little campsite in Glen Rosa.
Perfect apart from the midges.



20 miles walked 200 meters ascent.
