JOG-LE Burns birthplace, Alloway - 26th June

The birthplace of Robert Burns, poet & Scottish national hero.

The grave of Robert Burns father, William Burns.

The Burns monument, Alloway near Ayr.

Robert Burns birthplace cottage.

I camped last night on a pitch and putt golf course. It was the best camp of the trip. Cut grass and all. This morning I was on the road at 4:30 am to reach Alloway, the birthplace of the great Scottish hero, Robert Burns. I learned that he died at the age of 37 years old.

I will now travel to Troon from where I hope to get the ferry to Northern Ireland. I am hearing great things about Northern Ireland and its interest and beauty.
