A quick 1 night visit to St Andrews to get away.
We were booked earlier in the year but had to move the date because of covid.

We headed back to the rest. Decided to go back to town to look at the Xmas lights.
Back at the Inn for a late dinner. This was the only time that was left when we booked. Because of covid the number of dinners is reduced. The meal was delicious.
Days 2
After a great breakfast we decided to do the hike behind the inn. To the top of Chamcook Mountain, it was just short of 3KM but all up and all down on the way back. The trails were good with just a bit on snow on them. Great views at the top.
