     We left the reception by dancing the Orcadian Strip the Willow and continuing right out the door once we reached the bottom of the dance floor.  Our apologies if this caused any confusion or missed goodbyes.  We retired for the evening to Rufflets Country House Hotel, a Victorian house turned hotel on the outskirts of St Andrews frequented by Jack Nicklaus..

     Our original plan for the honeymoon was to go to Austria, but we have postponed that trip to a later date.  We decided instead to head for the highlands for a couple of days, where we visited Braemar, the queen's summer home at Balmoral, Banchory, and Aberdeen.
